If you are considering buying real estate in the greater Phoenix area as an investment, now is a good time!
Some things to consider when looking for investment properties are: location, saturation, rental statistics, and comparable sales in the area. Making educated choices and educated offers has never been more crucial.
Your strategy has to be long term to be realistic. The old fix and flip strategy is risky at best, and with the huge decline our market has seen, there are turnkey investments in almost every segment of our real estate market.
Be sure to find out if there is an HOA and what the monthly payment is. Always get homes you have an accepted offer on inspected, even though it may be an as is sale. Consider whether you want single family, townhouse or condo. There are pros and cons to all. Single family, three bedroom, two bath entry level homes usually earn the biggest share of the pie as high demand real estate.
If you are considering long term, a condo with no landscape or roof maintenance may be more appealing than the timeliness of a future sale. The new administration is creating banking guidelines that will open doors for first time home buyers to utilize great loan programs. There is also the option of offering a lease purchase to the family that doesn’t want to just rent.
The bottom line is, do your homework and use the talents of a seasoned real estate professional who can produce documented research to guide you in the right direction with all of your real estate needs. www.centralphoenixinvestorhomes.com
