In the coming months, Sylvain Bourgon Real Estate Group will be sharing with you a mini-series of blogs about different types of real estate investments. We will feature a new real estate investment once per month. The different real estate investment types will speak to a range of potential investors looking for different outcomes of their investment. Some people may be interested in putting money into a property for their future and some may be looking for significantly higher or immediate rental yield. Our mini-series of real estate investment blogs will help you understand more about your investment options and allow you to get more informed on how you can achieve your investment goals.
The different types of real estate investments we will be discussing across our mini-series over the next few months include: Single Family Home, Townhome, Single Family with Secondary Dwelling, Duplex/Triplex, Multiplex and Commercial.
In our mini series, we’ll discuss what kind of investor may be best suited to invest in each type of property. We’ll cover the investment properties which are better suited for owner-occupants, key factors important to consider when interested in this option and how owner-occupied properties may offer you a tax break. We will discuss what type of investment property will reward you with significant rental yield and what possible maintenance trade offs will accompany that type of rental yield. Some investment properties require that owners deal with many tenants. In our mini-series we’ll talk about how many tenants you can expect would occupy the different types of investment properties, what kind of expectations your tenants will have of you as the owner and some of the implications important to consider as you start owning properties with multiple tenants.
Some investment properties are more appealing to investors with deeper pockets or multiple investors such as multiplexes and commercial properties. In our mini-series, we’ll look at which properties and investments can give you positive cash flow right away or soon after you invest. Within larger, more expensive investment property purchases, leases can become more complex. We will discuss how leases change as your investment property moves into the commercial area and what can be expected of the agreement between tenant and landlord. As your investment gets larger, the risk you’re taking also changes. In our mini-series we will consider some of these risks and how prepared investors remain educated and ready to manage these risks.
Here at Sylvain Bourgon Real Estate Group we invite you to stay tuned throughout the next few months while we share with you our new mini-series set out to empower you in your investment property decisions. If you’re not ready to invest in a property quite yet, now is a great time to get informed and learn more about the options available for you when you’re ready. Understanding how the multitude of investment property types function, what their risks are and what they will require of you as an owner is the best way to prepare yourself for one of the biggest, most important purchases you’ll ever make.
Our team at Sylvain Bourgon Real Estate have experience in all different types of investment properties whether it’s been in personal investments or facilitating successful investment property purchases for our clients.
