 Why Invest in Real Estate?
Real Estate is a solid, stable, proven alternative to the Stock Market. Whether you are building equity for your retirement, saving for your children's education or hoping to give your children a leg-up in the GTA housing market, investing in Real Estate is worth considering. Most high net worth individuals carry some Real Estate investments in their portfolio.
How can I help?
My Brokerage, Homelife Landmark, is working with many of the top builders in the GTA - Tridel, Plazacorp, Minto, Concord Adex and others. We are invited to many pre-public offerings and in some cases we are assigned a certain portion of the new sales just for our brokerage. This means that you are first in line for the choice units. As an investor this is key.
For all purchases, I do a comparative assessment on the current value. For new construction I do an present value assessment, the list price is the builder projected future value. I access REALNET to compare builder projects and access builder inventory. I have experience with how the extras add up in new construction.
I can help you rent out your property to a suitable tenant after your purchase. I can provide the current rental rate. If needed, I can help you find a suitable management company if you do not want to manage the property yourself.
In the GTA a real estate investment is a fairly liquid investment most properties are sold in 30-60 days. If your investment outlook changes, you can buy and sell property to match your new circumstances. The key is to buy an investment property with liquidity in mind.
Keep in mind that Real Estate Investing becomes riskier the shorter your investment timeframe. A good timeframe to hold onto a property investment in my opinion is 5 years.
Let me help you build Personal Equity, not just from the house that you live in, but in a property that you can buy and sell.
There are many factors to consider when buying a investment property. Let's go for a coffee/tea and discuss your circumstances.
