Why it could be preferred over stocks or gold?\" width=\"771\" height=\"515\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With decreasing interest rates in the savings account and Fixed Deposit, more and more profit-seekers are making their minds to invest in something which is more lucrative as well as long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s a lot of good, actionable information about real estate investing that you can find online for free.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But to be fair, sometimes it can seem like there\u2019s just a little bit too much information, which prompts the question, \u201cCan you really learn about real estate investment from a blog?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer is \u201cYes,\u201d provided you know what to look for and where. We all know that in real estate investing, time is money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, with that in mind, here\u2019s our list of the best real estate investing blogs of 2020 and why you should consider reading them in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Commom Investment Plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Three such things come to mind in case of the thought process mentioned. They are<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\"><li><strong>Everybody\u2019s favourite, GOLD<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Not Everybody\u2019s favourite, STOCKS<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>And the asset of mixed emotions, REAL ESTATE<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. In this post, we will <strong>only<\/strong> talk about the advantages of Real Estate Investment over the other two options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-22\">Real estate investment groups&nbsp;(REIGs) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-22\">They are ideal for people who want to own rental real estate without the hassles of running it. Investing in REIGs requires a capital cushion and access to financing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-24\">REIGs are like small&nbsp;mutual funds&nbsp;that invest in rental properties. In a typical real estate investment group, a company buys or builds a set of apartment blocks or condos,&nbsp;then allows investors to purchase them through the company, thereby joining the group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-26\">A single investor can own one or multiple units of self-contained living space, but the company operating the investment group collectively manages all of the units, handling maintenance, advertising vacancies, and interviewing tenants. In exchange for conducting these management tasks, the company takes a percentage of the monthly rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-28\">A standard real estate investment group&nbsp;lease&nbsp;is in the investor\u2019s name, and all of the units pool a portion of the rent to guard against occasional vacancies. To this end, you&#8217;ll receive some income even if your unit is empty. As long as the vacancy rate for the pooled units doesn\u2019t spike too high, there should be enough to cover costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Real Estate Investment over Gold?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a good question given the ease of liquidity in the case of gold. But still, Real Estate has some benefits over holding physical gold as an investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, Physical gold won\u2019t give you regular income like house or shop rent. The physical keeping of gold as a future investment plan will not reap you any benefit until you sell it. Unlike this, real estate could be put on rent\/lease in order to get a cyclic income which could add a portion to your side or passive income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Real Estate Investment over Stocks?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because you can\u2019t use your stocks like a physical asset. For eg- Your house or shop could be used by you, in case of any of your own residential or commercial infrastructure needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, real estate properties are much more acceptable as collateral in case of loan requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8211;<\/strong>Moving to Real Estate for \u2018investment purposes is a capital savvy task and is not for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We sincerely hope, the post has helped you in learning more about the topic mentioned in the title.
