Investing in real estate can be a powerful way to create financial stability through passive(ish) income. Real estate offers a relatively reliable source of return on investment; over the long term, the right investments perform well.
Real estate isn’t ideal for someone looking to make money quickly. If you want to invest in the real estate market, you’ll need to be prepared to set funds aside that you won’t be able to access quickly. Liquidating real estate assets can take time, so never invest money you’ll need back quickly.
