In unpredictable times, should investors still be investing in either?
Traditionally, the term “investor” has been associated with two fields: finance and real estate.
Within the finance world, investors would typically select stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc. to experience a monetary gain on their invested funds.
Through the real estate sector, financial profit often came with a purchased piece of real estate that was rented out to tenants. Why would an investor invest in money?
Profit would come in the form of interest paid on the submitted funds or the sale of the current market value of the stock and/or fund.
Similarly, why would an investor invest in real estate?
Gain could be seen in several ways: the market value of the dwelling, the market value of the land, the value of the naturally occurring resources on the lot i.e. oil, fruit trees, as well as the income from inhabitants to use or occupy the property.
In unpredictable times, should investors still be investing in either?
Some may ask, if investors should consider investing in both sectors as to minimize risk. Options such as REITs can provide a great alternative for them. REITs: Real Estate Investment Trusts are a bridge between both types of investing. Public and private REITs allow investors to invest money into an organization that seeks revenue from investing in real estate. Profit made by the entity is then passed on to investors.
Therefore, the entity is investing in the real estate and the investor seeks gain from the invested funds.
"REITs offer both real estate and stock investing for the informed investor."
