Rates are low and Rents are high it is a great time to invest in Real Estate.  I have not seen as many good deals in my career to this point.  I personally had my best flip this year and am helping a few other investors with other great flips.  (wish me luck on the offer going in tonight)  Why is now a good time to invest?

1) Rates are extremely low.  It might be harder to borrow money now but for the well qualified buyer rates have never been lower.

2) Foreclosures are up.  There is a lot of inventory for a cash investor to choose from and because not many can pay cash for a house those who can are more valuable then ever.

3) $8,000.00 Tax Credit.  In the Northern Colorado Market homes under $220,000.00 (the median home price)  are selling extremely fast and for top dollar as buyers take advantage of the tax credit.  If you are able to find an investment of flip in this price range the market is absorbing these homes very fast. 

4) Real Estate is very stable in some markets.  While i would be scared to invest in a bubble market in Fort Collins we have typically seen stable 2-3% appreciation every year.  Because we have not had huge increases we also have not seen the huge corrections a lot of markets have.  While no one can predict the future if your buying a home at a 20% discount your still ahead if the market goes back 2%. 

5) Real Estate offers you other investment incentives.  (tax breaks)

For more info about the great deals i am seeing contact me anytime!  I love to talk Real Estate.
