Investors agree that Low Real Estate
Prices offer great investment opportunities.
“Last month, millionaire, Warren Buffett said something that raised some eyebrows. Talking about the current real estate market, Buffett explained that, if he could find a way to manage them, he’d buy “a couple hundred thousand” single-family homes. His argument was simple: Houses are cheap, interest rates are extremely low, and buying a house is a way of shorting the dollar with the ability to refinance later — something the bank won’t be able to do. This is especially true, according to Buffett, since there are “more households being created than houses”. The Oracle from Omaha went even further, telling the interviewer that if he was a young investor, he’d likely pick housing over an equity index fund.”1
Investors agree that those that PASS UP the opportunity to invest in real estate while interest rates are low will be regretting that decision years from now. The income potential from real estate investments will have these investors wishing they had acted.
So is real estate a good fit for your investment portfolio? Many investors have traded capital gains for cash flow as a way to preserve their investment dollar. In light of the current economic state, preservation of capital could be a far safer bet than other traditional investments such as stocks.
As with any investment, professional legal advice is always suggested and should be used to help an investor navigate through his or her strategy.
