Why YOU Should Invest in Apartments

[Justin Goodin]

For the average working professional, real estate investing provides the best path to generate additional income and wealth for their family. However, true wealth comes with the ability to leverage time and to stop trading hours for dollars. That is why passive investing for real estate is such a key driver for the wealthiest people on the planet.

It is said that 90% of the richest people in the world hold a portion of their portfolio in real estate. In fact, Kanye West was just added to Forbes annual list of billionaires with an estimated $81 million in real estate - nearly as much as he made from music and publishing at $90 million.

Kanye and other wealthy people are not real estate experts, but get all the advantages of owning real estate. Being rich doesn’t have to be your goal either. In fact, most people are just looking to generate extra money to cover retirement, a special vacation, an emergency fund, send a kid to college, or give a loved one a head start. These hard workers and busy professionals don’t have to be rich OR real estate experts to get all of the advantages that come with real estate investing. In fact, people can invest passively, just like most of the names on the annual Forbes list using various strategies.
