Investing in Real Estate

Some investors are focusing on rental property

While the housing market is definitely cooling, there is still money to be made in real estate.  You may just have to change your plans.

This time last year, the market for condos in Arizona was enormous, however, it appears now that the market is much more suited to rentals (ie apartments) at this point.

“‘I would say that the temperature to convert condos has cooled,’ Paone said. The days of buying a condo and flipping it for quick profit are over, Paone said.”

“In the first six months of this year, there were 2,840 condo and townhouse units listed for sale on the Tucson Association of Realtors MLS, a 74 percent increase over the 1,629 units listed during the first half of 2005.”

Making money in real estate means being willing to continually watch the market and being ready to change your plans along the way.  Focusing on market trends can be a lucrative side effect of this purposeful investing.
