With over 48 million renter households, real estate investing has a high demand. But what is real estate investing? Is it limited to owning rental properties only? 

As the name implies, real estate investing is a form of investment people use to diversify their portfolios.

Investing money in real estate offers a way to make fast money or long-term revenue. It may require some work or little work. It’s highly versatile. 

If this sounds intriguing to you, it might be an investment you want to learn about. Here is a guide to help you understand it and find out how to start using it to generate income.

What Is Real Estate Investing?

Real estate investing is a general term that refers to building wealth through real estate. It generally requires some cash up front but offers the potential to make money from that investment.

Real estate investing requires a lot of work in some cases, but it requires little work in other cases. The amount of work needed depends on the type of real estate you choose.

By investing in real estate, you can generate short-term or long-term income.

What Options Can You Use?

You can make money in several ways through your real estate investments. Here are a few options:

Buy and Hold

When you buy and hold properties, you purchase homes, apartments, and other property types. Then, you rent them to people. You won’t make much money at first with buy and holds, but you will in the long run.

Flipping Properties

Flipping a home provides a way to make a profit quickly. You can look at these featured properties to see what homes are on the market. 

Next, you buy a house that needs work. Then, you must invest some money into the house to fix it up. Finally, you sell the house to earn some fast cash.

Real Estate Investment Groups

You can also make money through passive real estate investing. Through this option, you purchase real estate investments with other people. In other words, you pool your money together.

Over time, you earn money from these investments, but you don’t have to do any of the work yourself.

How Can You Start Investing in Real Estate?

If you’d like to learn how to invest in real estate, you should consider working with another investor. You might want to generate some cash for real estate investing by starting with a home-flipping project.

You can also begin investing in real estate by purchasing one rental home. The key is to start small and gradually grow your real estate investing business.
