Contemplating Getting into Real Estate Investing??

Investing can be a roller coaster of a ride and this includes putting your money into real estate as well, but the ride is short and the gains are worth it in the long run!

Most Canadians who put their hard earned money into their homes and build up equity versus choosing the stock market road will end up earning more in the long game.  

Why Invest in Real Estate versus other avenues?

1. It's a solid, familiar investment

2. Forced Savings - having to contribute and make monthly payments on your mortgage builds up equity and future security for you and your family.

3. Appreciation - roller coaster of supply and demand trends means your home will increase in value 

4. Tax Free Profits - when you sell your principal residence, any profits earned on the sale are tax free! 

5. Building up Equity - the value of your home will rise over time simply by doing nothing and each monthly payment pays down your mortgage over time as your home value rises...the difference between value and balance of mortgage = home equity.  You can turn in this earned equity for additional financial room, to ask for a second mortgage, or maybe to upgrade your principal residence.  Having equity gives you more choice and opportunity to better your circumstances and provide future security.
