REIT options both public and private

Are you wary about sinking all of your money into a second house for investment purposes? What if there was a way to invest in real estate without worrying about renters, maintenance, and other common factors that people worry about? Many people are turning to real estate investment trusts (REIT) to get started in real estate investing. 

A REIT is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-generating real estate. Modeled after mutual funds, REITs pool the capital of numerous investors. This makes it possible for individual investors to earn dividends from real estate investments—without having to buy, manage, or finance any properties themselves. Make sure to tune into this episode as I expand on how you can get started with investing in REITs!

Leveraging your residence for more income

Of course, most people immediately think of buying a second property when they consider investing in real estate but what about leveraging your current property to bring in an income? There are two common ways people use their home to bring in additional income, renting out a room and sectioning off a portion of the house or property for rental use. If you want to get started when it comes to investing in real estate this is a relatively simple way to tip your toe into the real estate pool.
