Summary

In this episode of the Money Viper Podcast, host Jermaine Harris shares his journey into real estate investing. Initially unsure about the attainability of real estate investment, Jermaine gained insight during college by listening to podcasts like Bigger Pockets. Recently, he has shifted his focus from physical real estate to Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), which are stocks linked to companies owning various types of properties. He appreciates REITs for their requirement to distribute at least 90% of income as dividends, providing a steady income stream, and their low barrier to entry, with many shares priced under $100. Jermaine values the ease of investing in REITs, as they eliminate the responsibilities of managing properties. While he still aims to own investment property in the future, he recognizes that it requires substantial capital and hopes to find a good opportunity down the line.
