How Do I Make The Most Of My Real Estate Assets?
For many investors, the attraction of real estate includes the ability to pursue diversification of your portfolio, and seek wealth accumulation, deferral or avoidance of taxes, and cash flow. As you seek to accomplish these goals, you can advance your progress with planning. As with any collection, whether in investments or art, ongoing curation is a best practice. Clearly stating your objectives is an essential step toward achieving them, and the next step is identifying and implementing some key tactical procedures to move in that direction.
Mortgage Forbearance And Eviction Moratoriums
With the shutting down of the economy due to COVID-19, many tenants are without a job, which means they also can’t pay their rent. For landlords, this means a significant cut in property cash flow. However, because cash flows have been reduced doesn’t mean expenses have also been reduced. With active tenants on the property, expenses are likely to remain at previous levels. How do landlords survive in this type of situation?
What Is Net Cash Flow And How Do You Calculate It?
Net cash flow is the difference between the cash coming into a business versus the cash going out. Knowing what net cash flow is, how it is calculated, and understanding how to interpret the calculations are all essential to running a successful business. A simple explanation of calculating net cash flow is subtracting expenses and liabilities from the total cash in a business - but we will cover that more later. The calculation can help assess many business metrics like gains and losses over time, the financial stability of the company, and can be used to make business decisions.
The Tax Benefits Of Private Real Estate
Investing in real estate is widely accepted as one of the best ways to grow wealth. Real estate is a consistent performer, and generating passive income is frequently cited as a key component of the strategy employed by successful investors. Real estate investments typically offer more options than the purchase of stocks or bonds. Once you invest in those offerings, you have limited or no control over your stake's success. With real estate, you can rent a property or sell it. You can remodel it to increase the value or refinance it if conditions allow. A widely accepted though possibly apocryphal homily (credited to Andrew Carnegie among others) maintains that 90% of the world’s millionaires became wealthy through real estate investments.
Real Estate Strategies And Risk Levels
The phrase “don’t put all your eggs in one basket” applies to real estate, the level of risk exposure, and your investment strategy. There are numerous ways investors can diversify their real estate investment portfolio to potentially minimize risk exposure.
What Is A High Cash Flow Real Estate Investment?
Before we jump into a discussion about high cash flow real estate, let’s first define cash flow. Cash flow is consistent payments thrown off of an investment. These payments don’t have to come at regular intervals but should be fairly consistent. Payments can come in the form of rental income, as in direct real estate, or through some type of distribution, as is the case with real estate funds. In contrast, the appreciation of a property or fund isn’t cash flow. There is no cash received from appreciation until the liquidation event (i.e., sale of the investment). In some cases, cash flow is tied to appreciation, which increases the investment's cash flow. However, appreciation by itself isn’t cash flow.
What Is A Section 1250 Property?
Section 1250 has two components — property and depreciation. It uses a depreciation recapture rule that applies to certain property types held for more than one year. Properties that use the straight-line depreciation method do not fall under section 1250. For properties that take depreciation greater than the straight-line method, the rule applies, and depreciation must be recaptured upon the property's sale.
Forbearance During Covid-19: Updates and Trends
As the investment community continues to find our way through the ever-changing labyrinth of conditions that comprise the commercial property environment, navigating forbearance as a landlord, investor, or tenant remains fluid, even chaotic. Tenants are doing their best, as are owners, and financial institutions and investors respond to requests with the available information at the time.
What Is Preferred Equity?
Preferred equity has its advantages over other shareholder classes. But along with those advantages are some disadvantages. In this article, we’ll go over what preferred equity is and how it is used in real estate.
Financing Options Tighten For Smaller Multifamily Investments
As expected, lenders have tightened up loan requirements, but unlike the 2008/2009 GFC (Global Financial Crisis), the market hasn't frozen up. During the GFC, liquidity dried up and was slow to return. The Federal Reserve has acted decisively in 2020 to avoid a replay of the 2008 collapse. Some of this liquidity has come by way of a program called the Primary Dealer Credit Facility, which was used during the GFC and again as the stock market dove in March this year.
