Real estate is becoming the #1 investment due to the high rate of return and portfolio diversification.
Real estate allows a $10,000 investment to leverage a $100,000 mortgage. Appreciation of 3% a year on a $100,000 property will bring a 30% return on cash invested. In 15 to 30 years your investment will be free and clear, providing a monthly cash flow equal to many company retirement plans.
The stock market does not allow leveraged purchases and for most investors, the days of 30-100% appreciation will remain in the 20th century.
REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) are crushing stocks, up 20% so far this year.
If you'd like to make your own decisions and continue to control and direct your investment accounts, you've come to the right web site.
OlympiaInvestor.com is the pipeline to real estate investing in Thurston County (one of the fastest growing counties in Washington State).
High prices and low availability in King and Pierce counties for residential, commercial, and industrial properties are creating an exodus of people looking for affordable housing and quality of life.
Olympia's waterfront, parks and recreation, educational system, I-5 corridor, low housing prices, the Port of Olympia's aggressive growth policy, and availability of private, commercial and industrial sites are creating a Field of Dreams. Now that the playing field has been laid, The People Are Coming!
