In spite of the Fed’s rate increases and a slowly deteriorating economy, commercial real estate (CRE) transactions are still happening. But in a few cases, we’re seeing and hearing about transactions that seemed on track for closing just three or four months ago that are starting to fall apart.
Investing in commercial real estate (CRE) can be a sound strategy for diversifying a personal asset portfolio. CRE yields and growth can be more predictable than those offered in the equity and bond markets, for example, where trying to time buying and selling opportunities can seem more like wagering than investing.
It’s easier to invest in CRE than many investors think. Sure, commercial office buildings are valued in the tens of millions of dollars – but informed investors can have a stake in a property of that size by participating in a CRE investment syndication. In these arrangements, their money is pooled with that of other investors, making each person a part-owner in the property with nearly all the tax advantages and opportunities for returns as the major CRE investors enjoy.
Making money outside of your day job is a great way to boost your net worth, reach your financial goals, and fund your future retirement. But navigating the world of commercial real estate investments isn't easy. So before you jump in feet first, there are a few things you need to know ahead of time. Today, we're breaking down the best ways to generate passive real estate income and how to avoid common (and costly) mistakes.
Navigating the complexities of Denver commercial real estate (CRE) can be overwhelming, to say the least. New real estate developments are still popping up, especially industrial properties, and the market appears to be rebounding to grow at record rates despite Colorado’s governor locking down thousands of businesses. To make the CRE process more manageable, we recommend working with experienced Denver commercial real estate brokers. With CCIM-certified CRE experts on your side, you can make informed decisions when buying, selling, or leasing local properties.
Not all commercial real estate properties have suffered from the impacts of the government shutting down certain businesses ostensibly due to COVID-19. In fact, industrial real estate in Denver is currently seeing record-breaking amounts of growth amid the pandemic. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for the city's office, retail, or hospitality markets.
When you think about it, owning real estate is considered by many to be part and parcel of the American Dream. If fact, the U.S. Declaration of Independence’s original draft featured the language, “…Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Property'' until the last word was ultimately changed to “Happiness” by Thomas Jefferson. There’s nothing that compares to the pride and financial freedom that comes with owning your own property. Beyond that, investing in commercial real estate (CRE) can be a fantastic way to diversify your investment portfolio and earn passive income. But if you’re new to the world of CRE investing, knowing where to start can be confusing—or even downright daunting. Fortunately, Fountainhead Commercial is here to help. Here are three ways to invest in real estate from our experienced property investment advisors.
