3 SIMPLE TIPS TO FIND GREAT REAL ESTATE DEALS ANYWHERE

In a hot market like the one US is experiencing now, it’s hard to find great deals. Everything is overpriced; median real estate prices are up 160% since 1990, whereas incomes are up 90%, according to seekingalpha.com. Yet, there are great deals up for the taking and this applies with foreign properties also. However, you don’t want a property that will eventually turn out to be a money sinkhole. What should you look for while on the search for your next profitable real estate investment.

1. Less Risky.

All real estate investments are risky. However some investments are more riskier. There are so many things that can go wrong with development of real estate, land, Tenant-in-Common (TIC) investments, private real estate funds and fixer uppers. These investments are high risk. You may not see a dime of the money you invest again. Before you put money down, it is necessary to do considerable due diligence, analyze, test, review reports etc., to avoid making risky real estate decisions.

2. Fair cash-on-cash return.

Your stocks, bonds and other financial assets generate a rate of return of between 4% to 6%. Real estate shouldn’t be an exception. It is necessary to shoot for deals that give a fair cash-on –cash rate of return. This means that you need to buy cash flow positive properties and always pro-forma your deals. Check how pro-forma works in real estate investments

3. Doesn’t take too much of your time.

If you have to travel every week to check out the status of your investment property, then it’s not worth the effort, money and time. These type of properties require considerable time and energy investment before they become smart investments: vacation rentals, low quality properties in bad areas, college rentals etc.

Here are four basic hints you also can use to find great real estate deals, regardless of whether you're searching for an investment property, a property for your business or just a home for your family.

1. Be the first. . . Or the last one.

In real estate, often the old adage is true: The early bird gets the worm.

Often, it is not the highest bid for a property that is accepted, it is simply the first. So, if you are looking to find great real estate deals, be quick about it! Obtain prior approval from a bank so you can jump to any property immediately, and let your real estate agent set you up with automatic email alerts notifying you of any new property coming to the market. So, do not delay - check it out quickly, and make an offer the same day if possible.

On the contrary, another way to find great deals is to look for properties that have been in the market for a long time. Such homeowners are often much more willing to sell for a discount because they are tired of clinging to that property. Many times, they have been making two mortgage payments for months (or years) and will entertain almost any offer.

2. Approach absentee owners in private.

Some of the best kinds of deals can be got from absentee owners, which simply means someone who owns a property but does not live there. They may be landlords (who hate their tenants) or homeowners who inherited their homes and simply do not know what to do with them. You can find these deals in a number of ways, such as:

Drive around, look for vacant homes, and use public records online to track the owner

Buying a list of public records using an aggregate list site such as ListSource.com

Calling mom-and-pop owners who are listing "for rent" properties on Properbuz. Let them know that you are not interested in renting, but would like to talk to them about the purchase.

3. Take a look at a large number of deals.

Finally, recognize that finding discounted prices is basically a "numbers game." You may have to kiss a great deal of frogs to get the prince!

Whether you want to buy an investment property, buy a home for yourself or buy real estate for another reason, keep in mind: You make your cash when you buy. If you wish to have immediate equity on your investment, which can help you build prosperity in the foreseeable future, or save in case there is an economical turndown, you must find great real estate deals.

5 cities with the highest cross border real estate activity in 2018

26, October 2023

Asian investors are the largest group snapping up foreign property according to research. But in which cities are they investing? And why?

As more people's attention is being drawn to real estate as an asset class, a larger number of people are seeking out foreign property. 2017 saw a large number of Asian investors enter the market sweeping up properties from the US to Canada straight to France. Recently, contrary to expectations, their attention is being drawn to residential and commercial properties in London, UK.

Propertywire's first quarter of 2018 stats https://www.propertywire.com/news/global-news/londons-commercial-property-market-top-draw-international-buyers/ reveal that overall about 5.6 billion pounds of foreign money was invested in London, with Asian investors contributing about 4.4 billion pounds or 65% of the total investments. The next highest was Hong Kong at 5 billion with Paris following from behind at 1.9 billion pounds.

If you're looking to invest in real estate, one of the major factors you would need to consider is liquidity. Based on liquidity, these are the top performing cities for cross-border real estate investing in 2018. This is indirectly influenced by population growth, employment growth and usually followed by an increase in home values or strong rental yield.

• New York, USA: Brooklyn and Manhattan are two of New York's favorite hot spots for foreign real estate investors. The activity of Chinese, Russian and Middle Eastern real estate investors, paying cash on high-end properties has consistently driven New York City’s real estate price upwards. With a population growth that hasn't slowed down, New York City real estate not only offers liquidity but stability for real estate investors.

• London, UK: Despite Brexit, London leads the way as a favorite for foreign real estate capital. In the aftermath of Brexit, the attention to both London's commercial and residential real estate has been largely driven by a weaker pound and more affordable housing. Foreign real estate activity in London is largely funded by equity funds, institutional investments, and private capital. Units in the mid-range segments have been most popular among buyers. Presently, though, the government is setting tax constraints on foreign real estate investing as the cost of home ownership increases.

• Hong Kong, China: In 2017, Hong Kong was named the "most luxurious" prime housing market for the second year running by Christie's real estate https://www.christiesrealestate.com/eng/sales/hkg . Hong Kong's housing market has shown little cooling with 4.4 billion pounds of foreign money spent by foreign investors in 2018 first quarter. The heated market in Hong Kong, as experts pinpointed, is a major reason for increased residential housing prices all through China.

• Paris, France: The French economy is seeing a boom with the number of foreign investment activity reaching a 10 year high last year. The French economy exceeded expectations with a 2.2% growth, a large number of jobs created and strong real estate activity. Also with fairly stable mortgage rates, many investors are picking up properties in Paris and Bordeaux. Beyond 2018, analysts speculate the South of France will experience a strong housing demand.

• Los Angeles, CA: Los Angeles may soon replace Hong Kong as the no 1 most expensive city for expats. Currently, the average price of a luxury property in Los Angeles is $2.5 million. With population growth, increasing disposable income and a thriving tech sector, Los Angeles real estate offer stability and liquidity for investors. However, housing is in short supply. A situation leading to soaring house prices. With population growth and a great economy, Los Angeles is a great option for single-family investors seeking high rental yield.

5 Fears Limiting You from Real Estate Investing

11, May 2023

Just like any investment where speculations are involved, there is risk with real estate investing. Investors who have gotten their fingers bit have fed us the ‘negative stories’ and have helped create many fears. Yes, there are risks, and they can make for a pretty bad fall if you don’t prepare for them. But there are also fears. Here we’ll explore five basic fears stopping you from making that real estate investing decision.

I also hope to expound on these fears to help you see that you can get past them. The best way to overcome fear is embrace it and do that which you fear. So, no matter what we say, the decision to take the plunge still lies in your hands. Will you create long-term prosperity with your real estate investment or let fear hold you back?

1. Negative Cash Flow.

Cash flow is what remains when the operating expenses, the mortgage costs and other expenses have been deducted. The fear of negative cash flow, mostly fed by investors who have been there and done that, has held many people back. However, it is just about making the right calculations. You don’t expect to be 100% accurate about the possibility of vacancies or how much rental income you could make in a month but you can obtain past rental figures from the previous landlord, estimate possible repair expenses and still get your numbers close a notch.

2. Right Timing.

You’ve always heard ‘you’ve got to time the market’. The problem with that is this: you might never find the right time. If you’re afraid that the market might just not be ripe for real estate investing, I say that’s FEAR. As long as you can comfortably buy a property without putting any strain on your family’s budget and the country in which you’re investing isn’t in a pothole, go right on. The time is right.

3. Chasing the positive cash flows.

Some real estate agents who have tried and fumbled will tell you that you can’t cash flow positively on duplexes, condos, office complexes etc. With discouraging tales of despair, you catch the FEAR. This is actually an opportunity to learn from their mistakes. They failed because they went in with the wrong PLANS. Learn, attend seminars, buy DVDs and EBooks and develop a fail-proof strategy and you’ll get the positive cash flows.

4. The hassles of management.

Chasing renters for each month’s rent and dolling out money on property repairs are all reasons to run far from real estate investing. What if you had a troublesome tenant giving you problems? The hassles could keep you awake at night. You however do not need to go through the stress of managing your property yourself. You can hire professional property managers or management companies to do the job and do it well.

5. Lack of experience.

Yes, you do lack experience. All the seminars and courses do not make up for firsthand experience. So, if you lack the experience, why not work with a realtor who is a local expert and leverage their experience. (Check out the importance of a local realtor).

In conclusion, it’s not certain that investing in real estate will make you an overnight millionaire but if you do your homework and work with the right people, you’ll do just fine.

The Real Estate Market in January 2025: A Comprehensive Overview

21, January 2025

Understanding the Trends and Influences Shaping the Market

As we step into the New Year, the real estate market in January 2025 presents a fascinating tableau of trends and influences, reflecting broader economic conditions and demographic shifts. This month has already set the tone for what property buyers, sellers, and investors can expect in the coming months.

Market Trends

Housing Prices

January 2025 has seen a modest increase in housing prices across most urban areas, continuing the upward trend from the latter part of 2024. Factors contributing to this rise include ongoing demand for residential properties, coupled with limited supply. Major metropolitan regions like New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago have experienced notable price hikes, while smaller cities and rural areas have seen more moderate increases.

Interest Rates

The Federal Reserve's recent decision to maintain relatively low interest rates has sustained the affordability of mortgages, encouraging buyer activity. However, whispers of potential rate hikes later in the year have caused some buyers to expedite their purchasing decisions, adding a layer of urgency to the market.

Influences on the Market

Economic Conditions

The national economy has shown signs of steady growth, with low unemployment rates and rising wages contributing to consumer confidence. This economic stability has bolstered the real estate market, as more individuals and families feel financially secure enough to invest in property.

Demographic Shifts

Millennials, now entering their peak home-buying years, continue to drive demand for residential properties. This generational shift is particularly evident in suburban areas, where younger buyers are seeking affordable housing options with access to good schools and amenities. Additionally, the increasing trend of remote work has allowed more people to consider relocating away from expensive urban centers to more affordable regions.

Regional Insights

West Coast

California remains a hotspot for real estate activity, with cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles experiencing significant price surges. The tech industry's ongoing expansion in the Bay Area continues to attract high-income professionals, driving demand for luxury homes and high-end apartments. Meanwhile, more affordable areas in the Central Valley and Inland Empire are witnessing increased interest from buyers looking for cost-effective alternatives.

East Coast

New York City's real estate market has rebounded strongly from the pandemic-induced slump, with both residential and commercial properties showing robust performance. The city's appeal as a cultural and financial hub continues to draw investors and homebuyers alike. In contrast, smaller cities along the Eastern Seaboard, such as Raleigh and Charleston, offer attractive opportunities for those seeking a slower-paced lifestyle without sacrificing urban conveniences.

Midwest

The Midwest's real estate market remains stable, with cities like Chicago, Minneapolis, and Detroit witnessing steady growth. Affordable housing prices and strong job markets in these areas make them appealing destinations for both young professionals and families. Additionally, the region's focus on revitalizing urban centers has spurred interest in downtown properties and historic neighborhoods.

South

The Southern real estate market continues to thrive, driven by population growth and economic development. Cities such as Austin, Nashville, and Atlanta are experiencing rapid expansion, with new residential and commercial projects springing up to meet demand. The region's warm climate, lower cost of living, and business-friendly environment make it a magnet for both domestic and international buyers.

Challenges and Opportunities

Supply Constraints

One of the significant challenges facing the real estate market in January 2025 is the persistent supply constraints. The construction industry is grappling with labor shortages and rising material costs, which hinder the ability to meet the growing demand for new homes. This imbalance between supply and demand contributes to the upward pressure on housing prices.

Technological Advancements

On the flip side, technological advancements are presenting new opportunities in the real estate sector. The adoption of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies allows potential buyers to take virtual tours of properties from the comfort of their homes. Additionally, blockchain technology is streamlining the transaction process, making it more transparent and efficient.

Sustainability

Sustainability continues to be a crucial consideration for both developers and buyers. The demand for eco-friendly homes with energy-efficient features is on the rise, driven by increasing environmental awareness and the desire to reduce utility costs. Builders are incorporating sustainable practices and materials into new projects, catering to this growing market segment.

Looking Ahead

As we move further into 2025, several factors will shape the real estate market's trajectory. Potential changes in interest rates, evolving economic conditions, and demographic trends will all play a crucial role in determining market dynamics. For buyers, sellers, and investors, staying informed and adaptable will be key to navigating the ever-changing landscape of the real estate market.

In summary, January 2025 sets a promising yet complex stage for the real estate market. With rising prices, robust demand, and technological innovations, the sector is poised for continued growth. However, challenges such as supply constraints and economic uncertainties necessitate careful consideration and strategic planning. As always, those who can anticipate and adapt to these shifts will find the most success in the vibrant world of real estate.
