SO WHAT IS LEVERAGE IN REAL ESTATE?

Leverage in real estate is using borrowed money to purchase a property. 

For Example: In personal finance, you would use borrowed capital for (an investment), expecting the profits made to be greater than the interest payable. We will talk about this in detail and I will share a couple of real life scenarios to make things a bit more clear . 

Using leverage can be a great reason to buy a new property, luxury or otherwise and a way to grow your real estate portfolio and increase your profits. But you need to know why and how to use it to your advantage while avoiding the heavy risks that are sometimes involved. So listen to this entire cast for all the detials.   Enjoy the listen while you sip the coffee! Thanks for joining me..,

As you already know Leverage is ONLY one of several strategies for investing in real estate. 

Either as a buyer of a primary property or investing for the first time, knowing how to use it and knowing how it can work for you or against you, is necessary to get the highest rate of return from the money you invest. In Part1 we discussesd the positive aspects of using leverage to maximize your Cash-on-Cash-Returns and why they are exponentially greater with leverage. 

Today we discuss the oposite end of the spectrum, the cons to leverage.Vital to consistent financial growth is avoiding time and money consuming pitfalls and the misuse of "Leverage" can cause set-backs that take years to fix. So please listen to this entire series as a reminder if you are savvy and as a protective vest if you are new.  Take care and enjoy!

Well Bottom Line: "Selling And Tapping" your equity could make you feel happier and more financially secure. 

If you’re wondering whether to sell your home this year in 2021 — especially with the seasonally hot spring market approaching — I’m here to encourage it. For severeal measurable reasons you can do very well selling your home and knowing who is willing and able to buy it.  And knowing who is in the market buying currently is another excellent reason to sell with confidence.

Amidst the homebuying frenzy of 2020, and now 2021 people I come in contact with have the same question..., as well as friends and family, is it “smart” to sell my home this year in 2021?  As they watch neighboring houses sell fast and fetch above-asking prices it seems obvious, but I do understand no one wants to make a mistake. So listen closely to this episode as I breakdown who's doing what in the market by generational comparisons and let the stasts help you with your decision.  Let's go!

Within the next five years, Baby Boomers are projected to have the  largest household growth of any other generation during that same time  period, according to the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard.

Throughout our lives, there are often responsibilities that dictate  where we live. Whether being in the best school district for our  children, being close to our jobs, or some other factor is preventing a  move, the study found that there is a substantial shift that takes place  at age 61.

The study refers to this change as “Crossing the Freedom Threshold”.  When where you live is no longer determined by responsibilities, but  rather a freedom to live wherever you like. Enjoy the research and leave a comment if it touches a trigger point.

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) is a general term used to describe the consolidation of companies or assets through various types of financial transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, tender offers, purchase of assets, and management acquisitions.

With a worldwide health crisis that drove a pause in the economy this  year, the housing market was greatly impacted. Many have been eagerly  awaiting some bright signs of a recovery. Based on the latest Existing  Home Sales Report from the National Association of Realtors (NAR), June hit a much-anticipated record-setting rebound to ignite that spark. Let's talk about the Facts!
