Ventura County CA – Buying a rental property can be an excellent long term investment. Some of the wealthiest people I know made their millions from rental properties.
They started with a house and gradually moved up to apartment complexes. But, does it make sense for everyone?

Most definitely not. Rental properties are not for the faint of heart. But, if you have ever considered rental properties now is a great time to get started.
The market is close to the bottom, if not at the bottom. Home prices are increasing in many areas.
For example, St Augustine, Florida, Phoenix, and California have red hot housing markets.
Homes there are selling in days with multiple offers. Home prices are starting to go up in those areas. So, the housing market here may not be increasing yet. But, we expect it to soon.
On the other hand, the rental market has been increasing for a while now. Lots of people lost their home and can't buy another one. We have seen rental prices get bid up with multiple people trying to rent the same home.
The Pros of Rental Property.
The tenant pays your mortgage payment. You won't make a lot
of money while you have a mortgage. But, where else can you have someone buy and pay off something for you?
You start to make real money after the mortgage is paid off. In addition, some properties are so cheap that the rent will pay offa 15 year mortgage. So in 15 years you have a free house.
Rentals are a great hedge against inflation. Notice how gas prices are going up again? The prices of everything else increase with gas prices. Food, clothes, electricity, and everything else goes up.
That means your house will go up in value over the long term. But, you locked in the price when you bought it when prices were lower.
I don't want to make it seem like rental properties are a no brainer. There are some risks involved. No one should buy a rental property unless they are prepared and understand the risks.
I'll explain the risks in my next blog post. Thinking about a short sale?
