Capturing the Current Cash-Flow Window

September 29, 2014 by Marco Santarelli

As we enter the final quarter of 2014, we can look back at almost two years of a real estate turnaround having bottomed around early 2013.  Investors were poised to capitalize on one of the best real estate investment opportunities ever seen.

There was significant upward pressure building on single-family home prices created by historically low interest rates, falling unemployment rates, and an improving economy.  Those factors have resulted in increased demand for housing from both home-buyers and investors alike, which has pushed housing prices higher in most markets nationwide.

Rents Rise as Renters Become Better Risks

September 22, 2014 by Marco Santarelli

A better class of renter is changing the fact of Rentorship in America, creating a climate for higher rents.

Rental applicants, especially those applying for less expensive units, continue to see improvements in their credit risk, according to the latest TransUnion Rental Screening Solutions industry report.  The average ResidentScore, a measure used to assess a rental applicant’s risk level, improved by 0.8% between Q2 2013 and Q2 2014.

Landlords: You Need to Invest in These Upgrades Now

September 22, 2014 by Marco Santarelli

Invest in UpgradesWhen you own income-producing rental property, it’s important to attract renters and keep tenants happy without sinking a small fortune into luxurious upgrades that won’t get you much return on investment. On the other hand, not taking care of your property or offering upgrades will likely cost you more in the long run, as you’ll have a harder time finding and keeping responsible tenants. Luckily, there are some property improvements that are relatively affordable and can increase your rental home value and overall rental income.

Once again, I was honored to be invited back as a guest on the Investing Coast-2-Coast radio show with Pete Asmus and Ivan Oberon.

5 Reasons Real Estate Is (Once Again) a Prudent Investment

September 9, 2014 by Marco Santarelli

If you are someone who has given up on the dream of real estate investment, before even giving it a serious look, consider a few trends.

Construction is on the rise, foreclosures and repossessions are decreasing.  The U.S. Census Bureau recently reported that new residential sales in May 2014 have increased an estimated 16.9 percent compared to the same period last year.

Far from least, US median property sales are up over 11% annually, the biggest increase since 2012.

It’s clear, conditions are optimal.  Given today’s economy, with low property prices, decreased interest rates and a high demand for housing, there has never been a better time to profit from owning rental property.

In my opinion, the next five years will be the best ever for those who choose to make their fortunes in real estate.  If you already own good investment property, hold onto it dearly.  Don’t be tempted to sell.  If you’re on the fence, there are five things I want to share with you:
