What kind of an investor are
you?

It’s essential to ask yourself some introspective questions to see how you may function as the owner of a
rental property and why that investment may benefit you.

Are you are risk-taker or are you more conservative?

Do you have a long-term vision that will build a nest egg for your
retirement?

Or are you looking to make a quick buck and move on to the next thing?

Fix and flip is designed to give you a quick profit. It also keeps
opportunities flexible, if you decide to move onto flipping another house
or an entirely new business route.

Of course, fix and flip also runs a great risk if you run into higher
rehab costs than you expected or hit a downturn in the housing market that cuts into your quick profit or
worse, leaves you with a loss.

Historically, home prices have increased an average of 3 percent per
year, so as you hold the property, your resale value is going higher.

Rent and hold will not net you a quickreturn on investment, but it could
lead to a long-term profit that’s even greater. First, you have the monthly
income generated by the renters. Second, your house is building equity
the longer you hold it. So these are some factors to consider.

Are you prepared to be
a landlord?

Rental properties also requires responsibilities. There are
maintenance costs involved in renting a home, but they should be
negligible in the first years if you complete an efficient rehab.

It’s the renters who will fill your property that will require most of
your work. Do you have the patience and people skills to deal with finding the right renters and handling their
needs over a long period?

You also can turn the home over to a property manager, but that eats into
your profit.
