Real estate investors who like the idea of being a landlord may find active real estate investing exactly what they are looking for, or maybe not. Here are some of the benefits and disadvantages of active real estate investing:

### Benefits

Maximum control over the real estate investment
Tax benefits flow directly to the investor
Minimum fees since a leasing agent and property manager isn't being paid

### Disadvantages

Investors must understand the ins and outs of managing rental property
Requires detailed knowledge of the market, including growth trends and landlord-tenant laws
Least liquidity because large amounts of capital are tied up in the property down payment
Difficult to scale up and diversify a real estate portfolio when every investment is actively managed

Passive real estate investing occurs when an investor puts capital into an investment such as self-storage but has a third-party who does the majority of the work.
Property managers or sponsors of a private real estate investment will develop and execute the business plan, identify and acquire property that meets the investment criteria, obtain favorable financing, and handle the day-to-day operations of the property.
However, even passive real estate investors need to be active to some degree, such as analyzing the offering memorandum for a crowdfunding or private equity self-storage opportunity, and reviewing regular financial performance reports.
