How to Use an IRA to Buy an Investment Property
If you’ve gone down the list of available investments with your IRA provider, real estate is probably not one of them. However, people do buy investment properties using their IRAs. But there’s a little work and a few fees involved to make that happen. So go over what’s needed to use your IRA to buy an investment property.
What is Credit Risk?
Do real estate investors incur credit risk? If you are on the lending side of a real estate deal, then yes, you’re likely taking on credit risk. But what about investors buying properties or investing in real estate funds?
Why is Risk an Important Consideration When Investing?
Without risk, there can be no return. This is the unfortunate relationship between risk and return. Investors who seek out a higher return will usually be met with higher risk. Those investors who want a lower risk investment may also have to settle for lower returns.
What is Asset-Level Risk?
Asset-level risk analyzes risk associated with a specific property. This analysis isn’t just about the property and its investment structure. Asset-level risk also involves the surrounding properties and various local economic trends. No analysis is complete without factoring in general market risk as well.

How to Calculate Liquidity Risk?
Real estate isn’t known for its liquidity. But what is liquidity, and why should real estate investors care? Liquidity is the ability to discover the current market price of an asset and immediately convert the asset to cash at that price. To discover the current market price, buyers and sellers need to be readily available at that price. Real-time price discovery allows an investor to convert their asset into cash. There are many levels to that statement. In this article, we’ll unpack them and go through why we think it is important to consider liquidity risk.
What is General Market Risk?

What is Entitlement Risk?
Entitlement risk is often associated with new development, but it also occurs with property conversions. It can present a number of surprises and can be a very time-consuming process.

In this article, we’ll go over what entitlement risk is and the challenges that it presents to real estate investors.

What is Portfolio Management?
Unsophisticated investors are all too often married to the stock widgets on their iPhones. Their mood can be determined by the red (negative) or green (positive) updates that dictate the performance of their investment portfolios.
What is Liquidity Risk?
Real estate investors know that if they buy a property then turn right around and sell it, they’re likely to take a fairly large loss on the property. In addition to market conditions, liquidity plays a big role in the buy-and-hold nature of real estate investing.
