Real estate investing can produce lucrative results if you invest carefully. You can use real estate investments to balance a portfolio, because these investments often outperform when the stock market underperforms, which it certainly has been doing lately.
This short guide will help you understand some options available to new investors.

The Allure of Real Estate

Most of the time, homes increase in value. The Federal Reserve revealed that the average sale price of housing has risen 25 percent since the second quarter of 2020. This figure indicates that you can make a rental property investment and potentially gain a profit, with a relatively passive income. Alternatively, you may choose to flip the property later for a profit.
