The Investment Power of Real Estate

Wealth accumulation does not have to be about reinventing the wheel.  All one really has to do is let history guide you to follow the methods which have worked for decades. 

History dictates that since the Great Depression real estate has always appreciated in value over any given ten year period.  This is important for both Realtors and their clients interested in purchasing a home to realize as we are in the latter stages of a market downturn heading into an upturn.

The real estate market WILL AND IS SHIFTING UP!

This graph demonstrates the power of leveraged real estate investments vs. stock market investing over time.

Nationally the average appreciation in real estate over any given 10 year period is 5%.  That means that real estate valued at $200,000 will appreciate to $310,300 over ten years.  Turning a $10,000 initial down payment into $110,300 of CASH EQUITY.

This should provide a new perspective on the accumulation of wealth.  Especially when one realizes that this can be repeated many times over.
