• Self-improvement

Every article on how to get started investing in real estate should begin by emphasising the importance of gaining the necessary knowledge to make an informed decision.

Accumulating knowledge is by far the most time-consuming component of real estate investing. While not particularly demanding, especially in comparison to the academic rigours we’ve faced, it nevertheless necessitates time and commitment.

Most of us have spent an additional 8 to 10 years (minimum) after high school learning how to be competent physicians. And we keep learning as we practise. Many individuals believe they can learn everything they need from one or two books when it comes to real estate investing, but this is not the case. It takes years of core learning, and hands-on experience (investment) is crucial.

• Possessing your own real estate

Managing your own property, especially if you’ve amassed a sizable portfolio of units, may be time-consuming. It’s virtually usually because they’ve chosen to self-manage that I hear about people putting in an excessive lot of effort with their own rental homes.

Personally, I believe it is more beneficial to focus your efforts on locating good property management. Your time is far more valuable than the money you’d give them. A professional organisation will also perform a better job of dealing with tenant complaints and ensuring that everything is in accordance with local regulations. It also frees up time for you to accomplish the things you enjoy. Isn’t that the whole concept of passive income?

So, with solid management in place, how much time do I spend on my rental properties? Well, it always takes more time to handle renovations and has a good sense of how a property should work when you first buy it. However, after around six to a year of ownership, you should only be contacted for major difficulties on rare occasions.

• Crowdfunding, syndications, and funds are all options for investors.

The idea of crowdsourcing, syndications, and funds is to invest in real estate professionals in a passive manner. They’ve outlined an investment opportunity for you (for example, becoming a limited partner/owner in an apartment building), and they expect to manage all elements of that venture.

When it comes to investing in these private real estate projects, you must commit all of your efforts during the due diligence phase.

You must properly investigate the sponsor. Examine their background and track record.

After you’ve found a sponsor, you’ll need to check out the agreement. What type of opportunity is it: debt or equity, and which asset class is it in? ( apartment building, retail, warehouse, etc.) What is your expected return, and how much risk are they willing to take to get it? How long do you think the hold will last? What is the absolute minimum?

The rest should be absolutely passive after you believe you have a clear grasp of the opportunity in front of you and invest. You may relax and wait for the dividends to arrive. The majority of the effort is done up front, and the returns remain subsequently, which is the definition of passive income. The property will eventually sell, and you’ll be able to cash out and move on to another investment.

How long do I spend vetting these kinds of opportunities? They can take a few hours in some circumstances, and in others, weeks of glancing at it here and there while I gather information. I’ve put money into more than 25 of these types of businesses, but I’ve looked at a lot more that I haven’t. You get faster and better at it the more you do it, just like everything else.
