House Investing For Profit

When people think of investing, the last thing they think of is house investing. In fact, in November 2002, I did a key word search on Overture, the largest key word search tracking company on the Internet, and it reported that not one single search had been conducted using those two key words!

Our goal is to change that and make house investing a generic term. What is very interesting, to most families their home is their single largest investment. Yet, when it comes to quote "investing," most do not even consider buying houses. They think stocks, bonds and mutual funds. 

Why is this? I think it is because they may have faulty information about costs, financing, negative cash flow and management. They may also be concerned about liquidity. There are tons of information about investing in stocks, bonds and mutual funds but almost nothing about house investing except for flippers and no money down deals. Let me tell you, from almost 37 years of experience, that is not where the real money is.

Yet, if one really looks at house investing and what houses have done over the years very few investments can match their track record. Homes have a history of being the best investment most people made in their lifetime. Why not learn from this lesson in life? 

Imagine, if instead of owning one home, you or your parents had bought 10 houses, and you still owned them. How much would you be worth today? How much rental income would they be producing? Once you understand house investing, it is easy to see how people have become independently wealthy investing in houses and how you can too!
