Real Estate Investing 101

According to investment expert Dan Fournier, real estate is "the king of all investments." This is because the property's value will appreciate over time, and because it's a tangible asset that will remain a physical commodity.

There are two main ways that you can make a profit from virtual real estate investing: domestic and foreign.

Domestic Investments

A domestic investment is a property that you own and manage in your own country. You can make a profit from these investments by buying low, renovating the property, and selling for a higher price. This follows the general investment rule of "buy low, sell high."

Foreign Investments

A foreign investment means investing in real estate in another country. Fournier acknowledges this as the wave of the future, as prices are still very low in foreign markets and more and more people are retiring outside North America.

Online Real Estate

There are many online resources to help you get started with virtual real estate investing. You can search for both domestic and foreign properties on the web, and receive online help and support from investment experts.

Many investors rely on portals to help them manage their investments. This is no different for real estate investors, who use online real estate portals to search for new property listings and to monitor market trends.
