Want to invest in real estate? Here's how. (via CNBCMakeIt)
Property flipping is certainly one form of real estate investment, but if that seems too overwhelming, there are plenty of options that don't require nearly as much effort — or construction know-how — for a potentially better pay off.
Once you have those bases covered, real estate can be a way to grow your portfolio further, assuming you do your due diligence before making any major financial decisions. Here are some of your real estate investment options.REITs, real estate investment trusts, are one entry point for beginner investors, George R. Gagliardi, a Massachusetts-based certified financial planner, tells.
He adds that part of the appeal of REITs is learning how to evaluate them and "put together a diversified portfolio of REITs with different asset classes." If that's too complicated, you can also invest in a REIT ETF or mutual fund."not nearly as interesting as researching the different REITs to discover the hidden gems of the business, but a simple way to diversify one's investments and get into the real estate investment game," says Gagliardi.
