Greetings, today I want to talk to you about real estate investing. Specifically, I want to discuss some of the most common questions people ask me before they decide to invest. I hope this will help make your decision a little easier.

Is real estate a good investment?
Let's think about it for a moment. Starting in the 1950's, real estate has appreciated in about 80% of those years. Over time, the economy becomes cyclical, but for real estate, 80% of the time it's a good investment.

Can real estate help you retire?
Absolutely. When you invest in real estate, there are 3 basic advantages: it creates passive income, you get tax advantages, and real estate appreciates 80% of the time. All of these things work together to help make you more money.

How can you get started in real estate investing?
If you are even pondering this question, we need to get together and have a conversation. I would also recommend reading the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and learn about the difference between actively earning money and passively earning it.

If you have any questions at all, feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I'd love to help out.
