Ways to Raise Money for Property Investment

Investing in real estate is an excellent way to build a secure financial future, but of course, to invest in property, one needs to obtain the appropriate funds to do so first. Most property investors think that they must get a mortgage to buy the real estate they’re interested in, and although this may be an excellent way to buy their first and second properties, once they get a bit more serious about it, there are other options to be considered.

Partnerships

Many property investors are hesitant to go into partnership with another real estate entrepreneur, but it can be an excellent way of obtaining funds, which doesn’t involve going through the banks. Obviously, you’ll have to split any profits with your partner, but if you choose the right properties and you’re making a decent yield, this really shouldn’t be an issue.

Day Trading

Once you’ve made some money from property investment, instead of immediately plowing it back into more property, you might want to consider day trading, using a simple, affordable platform like tastytrade to make it as simple as possible. Why? Because there is a significant potential to make more money by doing this, which means that you could increase your capital to buy better properties immensely. So, why not just stick to day trading? It can be risky, and it is never a good idea to put all of your eggs in one basket. Your investment portfolio should span some sectors if you want to bolster your security as much as possible.

Family and Friends

More often, friends and family members are teaming up to buy and develop real estate. It can be a good choice for those of you with savings, who also have good friends and family members who also have savings they want to invest. However, there is a risk of becoming complacent or getting embroiled in arguments should you go down this avenue, which is why it is something you need to think very carefully about before you go ahead.

Private Lenders

If you strike out with the bank or you want to avoid getting a home loan through the usual channels for whatever reason, you may want to consider a private lender, like LendingOne. They are typically more likely to lend to a high-risk investor because they only have individual private shareholders to answer to if things go wrong. The most significant benefit of private lenders, other than their willingness to lend in challenging situations, is that they tend to offer much more flexible deals than the banks would ever dream of doing.

Remortgaging

If you own your own home, remortgaging it to buy another property can be a good move, if it enables you to buy a property that you can make a decent profit on. Of course, if you fail to make the repayments, you could be putting your home at risk, so think it through seriously, but don’t take it off the table as an option if you’re serious about real estate investing.
