Yes. Real estate should experience some growth in the next year, but not nearly as much as the last couple years.

You're looking for a REIT which is a real estate investment trust.  They invest in all kinds of real estate...not just commercial properties.  To remain a REIT, they are required by IRS rules to distribute a large percentage of their income every year to the owners.  This makes REITS a good source of income...if that's what you desire.  You also get the potential capital gains the company can gain upon sale of some of their properties.  REITS are a good way to invest in real estate...without having to get your hands dirty with cleaning and repairing a piece of property and without all the other landlord problems you could also have.  You buy REITs from a stockbroker just like any other stock.  Make sure you get some diversification across geography and real estate types.  eg invest in some residential, commercial and office properties.  Try to get some of the hot markets like Las Vegas or California...if you can.  Also try to find one with investments in several different parts of the country.

Miami preconstruction real estate investing is buying properties prior to their construction. For example, a condo that will be built in 2 years, you can put a small deposit to hold the condo and capture the appreciation during the 2 years, which is the time it takes for the condo to be built.\n\nWhy is Miami Preconstruction investing attractive to investors? \nNo carrying costs during the 2 years till the condo is built. There is no mortgage, no taxes, and no expenses at all. Most of all, you do not need to manage tenants which can be a concern for real estate investors. Also, you do not need to qualify for mortgage. So, regardless of your credit history, developers will sell you a unit.\n\nHow to calculate your return on Miami preconstruction real estate investing?\nIf the condo for example priced at $500K, typically, in the Miami market, developer would require 20% deposit. 10% at contract time and additional 10% when construction begins.  So, your total out of pocket deposit would be 100K which 20% of 500K.\n\nMiami real estate market has been appreciating over %25 annually.  However, for this example, let’s assume Miami real estate will appreciate 20% annually.  By the end of the first year, this condo that has not been built yet would have already appreciated from $500K to $600K.  Which means you have made $100K on your investing of $100K.  That 100% return in one year.  In other words, you could double your capital every year.\n\nHow to buy Miami Preconstruction?\nBe aware to these facts:  Developers are NOT Mutual Fund Managers in the business of making you money.  They are business people in the business of building real estate. They understand the real estate market and they make the most profit by selling for the highest price.   This is the myth that could cause investors not making the right decision.  \n\nSo, do your own research, the Internet can be a great aid in finding initial information.  After doing some initial research, find a good realtor that understands the market and preconstruction to help you evaluate the options you have available. \n\nIf you’re contacting the developer directly, you could be taking a gamble since the sales staff has no loyalty to you to disclose vital information, they work for the developer.   Go with a knowledgeable local realtor to represent you.  You can find realtors to provide this free service.  They are paid commission by the developer and your price is the same.\n\nWhat Miami Preconstruction investing do you choose?\nWaterfront real estate is the safest investing possible. Tens of thousands are moving to Miami area every month and most asking for waterfront or oceanfront real estate.  They are willing to pay a good premium to enjoy the life style.  There is a lot more details that cannot be covered here.\n \nBubble or Not?\nMiami Preconstruction and Miami real estate has been very rewarding to its investors.  If you’re looking for long term investing, this is a great vehicle for good ROI with little effort. “Be selective”,  Not every developer and every project is well analyzed and priced right. Like many financial markets, Miami Preconstruction and Miami real estate are controlled by greed and fear, the primal emotions that drive the markets. \n\nInterest rates might not have great impact on Miami real estate since Miami is an international market with buyers from around the globe.   International buyers are enjoying the extended buying power from the weak US dollar and heavily investing their cash in Miami real estate markets.  Florida has very flexible rules towards foreign nationals buying Miami and Florida real estate.  Also, we are seeing buyers from markets such as California and New York that are aggressively buying Miami real estate and oceanfront properties.\n\nSavvy and long term investors will do well.  Risk management is the key to survival in financial markets and that includes Miami Preconstruction real estate investing. \n\nAndrew James, Miami P

California is among the most overheated markets in real estate so buying now MAY get you into a financial mess by overpaying. Renting is always a waste of money. If you can get LAND at a reasonable price then building a home will avoid the profit you would pay a homeowner for an existing home. That's just my opinion.\n\nImran

Any real estate investment in Florida is good. Some are better than others, but you can't go wrong. Florida will continue to grow even after all other real estate markets slow or dip because of the retiring people(q tips as they are called)......KECK

Land tends to be a terrible investment. The reason is that your only return of investment is through market appreciation. And, the only way to acquire your appreciation is through the sale of the property. In the meantime, you have property taxes to pay.\n\nIf you are buying the land for development, make sure you can build or subdivide the land for building before you purchase. Typically, a seller should provide any engineering or survey work that would indicate its suitability for development.

If the deal is right and stacks-up it is ALWAYS the right time to buy property - foreclosure or otherwise.\n\nIf you are buying for investments:-\n\nDoes the rental potential in the area mean it will cover its own mortgage costs?\nAre you buying at LEAST 15% below market value?\nIs the area up and coming?\nIs the property in good general condition?\nWill it be easy to rent?\nCan you get an interest-only mortgage for a competative rate?\n\nIf you can tick all of your boxes, then it is hard to see when there could be a bad time to buy property.\n\nIf you buy AT LEAST 15% below market value (ideally 25%+) then even if house prices fell - you are still on a great deal with built-in equity.

Fantastic opportunity\nDubai has good income levels and in Duty Free, you will broaden your horizons and see a side of life and the world people would envy.\n\nJust make sure that when you go to another country, you GO to another country and not try to take your own country's values and lifestyles with you. \nJust as your neighbors may complain about visitors that refuse to live according to local customs, you are going to be the visitor there. Some things you may expect may be insultive to them in Dubai .... and visa versa. \n\nGood luck and have fun

real estate goes in a 10 yr cycle, so I believe we should expect to see a steady climb in interest rates, especially with the weak dollar. \n\nRegards...

Commercial property is on the rise. Anything to do with retail is on a current sell out. Even investments in commercial property is rising very well. If youre in Rajasthan, the place is supposed to pick up rapidly for the IT and BPOs. Also, manufacturing in Rajasthan is on a rise. Contact some architects there. Or get in touch with a Civil Engineering/Construction firm immediately.

Probably not much.  Just invest in a mutual fund that invests in building

It's a good idea, simply because homes appreciate over time (maybe a lot of time, but they generally do).  \n\nYou have to take into consideration what the mortgage and taxes and insurance will cost you on a per month basis.  Then you have to figure out if you can rent it for that figure.  If you can, or can get more, is it worth the extra tax for the income?  If it's not, do you need the loss for your taxes?  \n\nRemember, when it's time to sell income property, you have to pay taxes on it unless you do a 1031 exchange, but that just means you're buying into another income property.  \n\nFinding good renters can be hard.  Can you pay for the house if it sits for a couple of months unrented?  Do you hav e the time to really check out a potential renter?  To be a landlord?\n\nThere are a lot of pros and cons.  If you have the time and the resources, by all means, hold on to it because real estate is a great thing to have.  But it's a lot of work too!\n\nGood luck  :)
