How to find a Successful Investment Opportunity your local market
Like myself, I'm sure you continue to look for as many ways possible to find good deals and place your hard earned money where it will get the biggest "Bang for the Buck". You want a deal without all the speculation or just a deal that will not results in negative cash flow.
As a Baby Boomer myself, bells went off for me just thinking about turning 65. It was suggested to me that after 30 years in the business, I should have found the road to success." However, someone once said; "only fools know all and know they know but, the wise know the difference between what they know and don't know." Thus, the answers to the question of what leads to success or finding opportunity for investors may be in the mere fact we don't know everything about real estate investing no matter How long we have been doing it.
Did you know that, 3000 Baby Boomers are turning 65 every day in the United States ? Said fact could be one key to real estate investing success. This Statistic from the United States Social Security Administration, also suggest the fact that our elderly population will continue to increase through year 2020 or more, resulting in the elderly being the majority of the United States population for some time to come.
What's all of this got to do with finding opportunity in real estate you ask? Well, more and more property owners are seeking to take advantage of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") rental and sales assistance, Tax Payer funded Capital Grants and per diem programs that pay for housing of Baby Boomers.
Need for funding housing developments for; frail elderly low income rentals, the low income or homeless veteran, people with disabilities, and other special need groups, is creating a national housing crisis. As a real estate investor, you can help prevent a national Housing crisis by investing in the housing of special needs groups, and at the same time personally benefit economically along the way.
