Why do you invest in real estate?

Whats up BiggerPockets!

I have a question for you all:

Why do you invest in real estate?

I want to hear from all the investors on here and learn what is the biggest driver for real estate investors.  

I think one of the biggest keys to discovering success in what ever you do is discovering your "Why."  I think knowing this ultimately helps you set meaningful goals, develop a plan of action and drive your overall success.  

I know for me starting out in real estate it was a lot about building short-term wealth but as time has gone by I realize that real estate investing can be much more rewarding as a long term wealth building strategy. 

So, why do you invest in real estate?

I've got nothing better to do, and I enjoy dealing with abusive tenants and dishonest contractors!  :D
