What to Expect When Buying Rental Properties

	Buying an investment property?  Below are things to consider before you begin your search, provided courtesy of our partners at Movement Mortgage.

While housing is still very affordable in many areas of the country, it seems like a good time to purchase real estate as an investment — that is, to own rental property. Should the average American consider this as a legitimate means to grow their financial portfolio? In a word, yes. Even during the housing recession you heard the experts maintaining that real estate was still a valuable investment. There are many reasons to take the plunge and invest in rental properties. Here are a few. It’s a good time to buy property. Rates and property prices are generally low right now, which means you can get a great mortgage rate and a good price on a property you like. But rates and prices are slowly building all across the country. This is both a plus and a minus: every eighth of a point rise in rates means your purchase power goes down. You’ll get less property for the money, and as home prices rise you’ll pay more for less as well. But keep in mind that property you purchase now will cost more in the future. As the market continues to recover, your investment should appreciate steadily. Your expenses are offset in several ways. By buying a property and renting it out, your tenants will be covering a large portion of the costs you incur. Over time, rents will increase as you pay off the mortgage, leaving more income as profit. In addition, you’ll benefit from tax breaks and incentives* on your depreciation and expenses. Appreciation works in your favor. Your investment will be appreciating on the entire value of the property. If you put 20% down on a $200,000 property, you may be paying 4% interest on the 80% you borrow, but a 3% appreciation on the value of the property is on the entire $200,000, not just the $40,000 you put down. Compare that to your return on an investment in the stock market. Diversity in your investment portfolio is a good idea. See above. And remember that by spreading out your investments, you’re more likely to reap the benefits of a changing economy. You can invest in your retirement. If your $200,000 investment appreciates 3% per year for the next 20 years, just think of what you can do with the money when you sell the property upon your retirement. Or perhaps you bought a property you would want to retire to. It’s true that being a landlord can be stressful for many people. However, the benefits of investing in property outweigh the negatives for many. I am always available to review your finances and help you determine the strategy and mortgage options that can benefit you the most. Call me today to take advantage of the market and invest in your future! *We are not a tax advisory firm.

Top 6 Remodeling Projects to Improve the Value of Your Home

	Is your home ready for a makeover?  Here are some quick fixes that will increase the appeal as well as increase your home's value.

You may be dreaming of a new in-ground swimming pool or stainless-steel kitchen counters, but will these investments give you the right ROI when it’s time to sell? Below are some of the top home improvements that, according to Remodeling magazine, will also improve your chances of getting the most for your home at the closing table. First Impressions. A new steel front door speaks volumes about home security and energy efficiency. You can choose from a wide price range and many colors. Not ready to replace? Paint the existing front door and repair any cracks or marring of the casing to up your curb appeal. 96.6% ROI. [A fiberglass front door will net you about 70.8% ROI.] Take It to the Top. Turning an attic into an additional bedroom is a popular trend and a great investment. Maximize your living space without a major adjustment to your home’s structure. This also gives you the opportunity to beef up your insulation and improve your home’s energy efficiency — a hugely desirable feature for Millennial buyers. 84.3% ROI. Get Decked Out. A wooden deck addition to your home brings an 87.4% ROI, according to Remodeling magazine. Choosing a composite instead still nets you about 74.3% return. Outdoor entertaining is on the upswing, and an open deck in general costs far less than an enclosed addition. Go Low. As with an attic remodel, redoing a basement improves the value of your home without altering its footprint. Refinish the room and add a wet bar and bathroom for maximum enjoyment and return on your investment. 77.6% ROI. Consider the Ups and Downs. How many people think about replacing their garage door when they’re making home improvements? Apparently more of us should. It’s another bump to your curb appeal, and you have a vast array of choices, from uninsulated steel to insulated panels with windows. Your choice may depend on whether your garage is only for storing cars or if you have a workshop or laundry facilities there too. 83.7% ROI. Cook Up Some Change. Of course, an updated kitchen is always one of the best investments you can make when it comes to home improvements. We’re talking a minor remodel, here: new cabinet fronts and hardware, new midpriced sink and faucet, and if you’re really in the mood, replacing the stove with a more energy-efficient model. A major upgrade probably isn’t worth it: a minor remodel brings in about an 82.7% ROI, while spending over $50,000 on a major upgrade will probably only net you 74.2% ROI. Need more advice? I’m happy to recommend a local real estate agent who is an expert on the home trends in our area. And feel free to contact me anytime regarding a home-improvement loan. Your home is the most important investment in your financial portfolio; let’s discuss how to make this investment work for you.
