What Is an Investment Real Estate?
Investment real estate is a real estate that generates income or is otherwise intended for investment purposes rather than as a primary residence. It is common for investors to own multiple pieces of real estate, one of which serves as a primary residence while the others are typically used to generate rental income and profits through price appreciation. The tax implications for investment real estate are often different than those for residential real estate.
Key Takeaways
Investment real estate can provide opportunities for investors to build wealth, increase income, and diversify an investment portfolio.
Residential investments typically involve homes, townhouses, and condominiums.
An investment in commercial real estate might involve the ownership of retail stores, office buildings, or storage facilities and warehouses.
Investment real estate can create capital gains for investors due to increases in property value as well as provide rental income.
Residential
Investment real estate can include residential land and properties. Residential investments typically involve homes, townhouses, and condominiums. Residential properties can be multi-family or single-family units.
Commercial
An investment in commercial real estate might involve the ownership of retail stores, office buildings, or storage facilities and warehouses.
Investment in commercial real estate is typically more involved and costly than residential investments. Commercial property leases can be longer than a residential rental agreement. Both the costs and profitability are usually measured on a per-square-foot basis.
Benefits of Investment in Real Estate
The benefits of investing in real estate are numerous and can vary depending on the goal of the investor.
Goals also depend on the investor's risk tolerance and investor's time horizon.
Some investors invest in real estate to Diversify money away from the stock market, while other investors want their money invested in physical assets instead of securities, such as equities or bonds.
Two of the primary benefits of investing in real estate, both residential and commercial, include:
Capital Appreciation
Investment properties can realize capital gains for investors due to property value increases over time. A capital gain is a profit that results from the difference between the original purchase price and the sale price of the property. Of course, investors can only realize the capital gain after they sell it.
However, prices have risen dramatically over the last few decades as demand for housing has increased. Both supply and demand play a role in earning capital gains from real estate. If there are fewer properties in a geographic region or less supply, property prices tend to appreciate–all else being equal.
Rental Income
Many investors buy real estate for the steady stream of income that it provides. Whether it's a residential or a commercial property, renters or occupants pay the owner each month until the rental agreement or lease expires. This revenue stream can offer a stable income for retirees and others who are looking for an alternative source of income besides income from holding investment securities such as bonds or stocks. Income from real estate can also act as a hedge or protection against stock market downturns and rising prices of consumer goods.
