The stock market has performed relatively hot over the past ten years. The internet boom and subsequent bust made a lot of people wealthy, but also ruined the finances of many. The same is now true of the housing market where there have been a record number of foreclosures over the last couple of years. Banks want to rid themselves of these properties as soon as possible because they lose money every day the house is not off the market. This is why you should consider a real estate investment.

Typically, most of your largest investment returns are the result of a real estate investment. Homes, unlike many other big money purchases, like cars, have the ability and tendency to actually appreciate. Not only can they appreciate, they can do so at a very fast rate and could reap you a handsome return. Interest rates have risen in response to certain market conditions like inflation and the large number of foreclosures, but are still historically lower. The volume of foreclosed homes combined with decent interest rates makes this a suitable investment. You can turn the property around quickly and make some immediate cash, or you could hold on to the home and rent it out, ensuring that you have good cash flow and a long term return.
