Options for Your New Investment Property

Updated: Apr 26, 2023

If you’re interested in buying real estate as an investment, you may already know that there are a few different options as far as what you can do with it. Everyone’s situation is different, but it’s important that you find the option that works the best for you. Here are a few different things that you can do with your new investment property.


Wait for appreciation

Although this is generally the easiest option, it is also, by far, the least profitable. When you buy a property, even if you don’t do anything with it, it will grow in value over time. Years later, you can sell it for a profit.


Fix-and-flip

Some people prefer the fix-and-flip option. They purchase a property, usually one that is a little run down, and then they make repairs. Ideally, they are then able to sell the property for enough to pay the original price, plus repairs, and make a little extra money for themselves. Although this option can be a little more volatile, a good sell can leave you with thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in your pocket, even after expenses.


Rent

One of the strongest options is to rent out your property. This option means that money comes in monthly, as long as renters are living in your property. You will have to put a lot of effort into your property, especially if you decide to manage it yourself, but this method will create a passive source of income. This means that, once you’ve bought the property, it doesn’t take much work to keep the money coming in for an indefinite period of time.
