There is no question - the events of 2020 have disrupted everyone's life. Yet, despite all of the bad things that have been - and still are - happening, there is a very bright spot that too many people are missing - REAL ESTATE.
Now you might ask, "So what? I don't have time to think about that. And I don't have the money. I have bigger things to be concerned with." But what if I were to tell you that those are precisely the reasons you should consider at least looking into it?
As FORBES points out, real estate markets all over the country are hot. The lowest mortgage rates possible are helping to fuel it, but that is not the only reason. The corona virus crisis and the ensuing lockdowns created a massive migration as people flee metropolitan areas for "safer" places. This has resulted in a deficit of homes available in both suburban and more rural areas while also creating an influx of available properties in the metro areas as people flee. And people in those metro areas fully understand that their taxes will rise substantially to make up for all the losses from businesses that have been closed. Closed businesses do not fill the coffers of the cities & states. In such a scenario the opportunities for profit abound. And not just for investors, either. Those low mortgage rates make home ownership a lot less expensive than it was.
As for not having the time? It does not take much time at all - most professional full-time real estate investors, for example, rarely put in more than 6-10 hours a week, and many put in far less time. As for not having the cash available - did you know there are (22) methods of buying real estate and at least (8) do not require cash? It's true - you can buy a home, or invest in flips and even in rentals without the need of cash, so lack of funds need not keep you from taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
As for having bigger things to worry about - what is a bigger concern than your future?
If you have ever considered buying a home, or learning how to make huge profits investing in real estate, you will never, ever find a better time than right now. And if you need someone to show you the way, teach you the ropes and help you through the process, there is no better help than "The Simple Man's Guide to Real Estate". A complete, thorough training program, it includes everything needed - training, software that creates the contracts and even free mentoring by actual investors, all for under $100 complete (they operate as a not-for-profit).
It is certainly worth a look.
