Real estate investing is more than just buying, renting, or flipping properties.
There are smarter ways to grow your money.
Real estate investments are split into four types of properties:
Opportunistic properties are the exciting, blood-pumping bad boys of real estate. Parents might be weary, but they’ll always keep things interesting.
They have a high risk profile, but also higher projected returns. It may take years before you see returns, but earnings are typically high.
Buying a plot of land in Downtown Miami and building a new residential high rise.
This is the type of properties School of Whales invests in.
Value add properties are rough around the edges, but show a tremendous amount of potential. Once you’re done with them, you’ll be amazed at how far they’ve come.
They have a moderate to high risk profile, offer little to no cash flow at acquisition, but lots of potential to increase profits significantly in the near future, and require active oversight, deep knowledge of real estate, and strategic planning to increase value.
Buying a historic and out of date hotel in Charleston and renovating it into a high end boutique hotel.
This is the type of properties School of Whales invests in.
Core + properties clean up nice and easy. With a little bit of love and care, these properties will always leave a good impression.
They have a low to moderate risk profile, value that can be increased by maximizing efficiency, and require active oversight and management.
Buying a profitable shopping center in Atlanta and bringing in better, higher end tenants to increase cap rate.
Stable, conservative, and a tad boring, Core properties are great on paper, take home to meet your parents type of real estate investments.
They are low risk, offer steady cash flow, but also produce minimal growth in your investment.
Buying a fully leased stabilized trophy property in Manhattan.
In Real Estate, the more value you add to a property or land, the higher the returns on your investment.
Why should you invest in real estate?
Real estate has consistently been one of the safest and most lucrative forms of long-term investing . But previously, only those with access and large amounts of capital (a.k.a. accredited investors) could participate in this valuable market.
Lucky for you, that’s no longer the case.
