Impact Wealth | Oct 11, 2024

Forbes | Aug 26, 2024 

Intense collaboration and customization are often a hallmark behind successful business partnerships. But getting collaboration right can be surprisingly challenging — and in some cases, even the most well-intentioned collaborations can fail.

Beyond Cash Flow: Focusing on Long-Term Real Estate Value

Beyond Cash Flow: Focusing on Long-Term Real Estate Value

There’s an overemphasis on cash flow in today’s real estate investor community. While positive monthly cash flow is important, over-focusing on it can severely limit investors’ opportunities and long-term returns. Investors must balance desires for immediate returns with planning for impactful long-term growth and stability.

Understanding drivers of long-term property appreciation, rent appreciation, mortgage principal paydown, depreciation tax benefits, and equity growth through both natural appreciation and borrowed equity is key. While positive cash flow provides immediate returns, it’s the long-term value and steady benefit of monthly rental revenue that best secure a consistently profitable real estate investment over time.

REINation CEO Kent Clothier Sr. said, “Cash flow is a snapshot, a moment in time. Appreciation and the accumulation of true wealth happen over years, even decades with rental properties. Don’t let a myopic view limit your success.”

Calculating the True Return on Investment for Rental Properties

By Chris Clothier on Jun 5, 2024 1:56:27 PM

Disrupt Magazine | Jun 4, 2024 

Real estate is one of the best long-term investments for building wealth and generating passive income. Rental properties can provide steady cash flow while the property appreciates in value over time. 

Forbes stated, “Appreciation, or the rising of home prices over time, is how the majority of wealth is built in real estate. This is the “home run” you hear of when people make a large windfall of money. While prices fluctuate, over the long run real estate values have always gone up, always, and there is no reason to think that is going to change.

However, to accurately assess the profitability and return on a rental property investment, it’s important to look beyond just the purchase price and rental income. Calculating the true return on investment (ROI) requires a thorough analysis of all the costs and benefits.
