There are alot of reasons. 1) Tax write offs 2) better than paying someone elses house note for them 3) Usually resell for a small(sometimes large) profit 4) Good for your credit 5) Creates equity which you can draw money from. There are alot more reasons i'm sure but thats the main ones I can think of off the top of my head. |

As long as you have real estate, it's like $ in the bank. Every year the price of property goes up, if you own a house, you always have equity in the house you can borrow $ on {remorgage} Or you can sell the property for more than what you initailly paid for it. |

it means that you will always have a place to live in and that you aren't throwing your money down the drain and making somebody else rich. you can do whatever you want in your own house. as the years go by, your house is worth more, the more money you put in it. hope this helps |

Investing in houses or real estate is simply one of the few investments that you are not likely to have depreciation or loss in the value of your investment.
Properties all over the world are appreciating in price almost on a daily basis.
So investing in houses either for yourself and your family or just for speculations is a good investment that with patience will bring you good returns. |

YOU HAVE TO SPEND MONEY TO PUT A ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD. Any money spent on a living environment will improve it and raise its value. You are spending money that any way you would have had to spend.
If two people each spend $750 a month, one for a house (mortgage & repairs) the other for rent not including utilites, at the end of a year they have each spent $9,000. The person in the house has paid at lease $450 on the Principal payment of the mortgage (they will get this back). If the house owner spent only $150 per month on property improvements, $1,800 could of raised the value of the house $4,000.
SO FOR THE SAME MONEY SPENT THE HOUSE OWNER MAY SEE A RETURN OF $4,450 - and they have done nothing other than what most people do (PUT A ROOF OVER THEIR HEADS). This is not investing in real estate, this is everyday life. That is why the statement is made. |

I think the phrase you have heard is "buying a home is the BIGGEST investment you will ever make." Not smartest. It can only be the smartest investment if the return outperforms every other available investment opportunity. While the return will usually be good, there are plenty of other investments with higher returns. |

You have to live somewhere and paying rent is the same as throwing your money away.
The price for housing has historically always gone up, so as long as you stay in your house long enough it will have to end up being worth more than you paid. Unless you so overpay to begin with you can't catch up, but a mortgage company won't let you do that. |

We invest for more reasons than just getting a great return on our money. We all live in a house. Having your own that is very comfortable is an investment in good living. |

That as long as you take good care of your house and yard, and be sure that everything is in good working order, you will usually be able to make a large profit when you are ready to sell. |

It means that any money that you pay out each month (loan payment instead of rent) goes back in to your pocket. The amount of your monthly loan payment that is interest is tax deductible, so you will get a large income tax refund that offsets how much you are paying each month. And the part of the loan payment that is principal, increases how much equity you have in the house (increases how much of it you own rather than the bank).
And because prices of real estate generally go up, you are putting your money is something solid. When, or if, you ever decide to sell you will get all of your money back and then some. Not to mention having the security and idnependence of owning your own home. |

I think when you compare the different Business's profit, this kind of investing that you said is the best. |

The premise to this advice is based on equity build up and your return on your investment. Unlike paper investments (stocks, bonds, mutual funds and insurances)which you can't buy (generally speaking) with other people's money (100% financing), houses often see double-digit increases in value and after time, can give you acces to cash that can be used to buy another one, create a cash flow or buy paper investments. Overall, an investment in real estate has an unlimited income potential while other investments are not only finite, but consider 10% to be a good investment. We normally look for a 40% or better return on our investments, and have seen returns as high as only a Microsoft stockholder could realize. |
