Advantages Of Rental Property Investment

With my cash out refinancing, my original plan was to buy another rental property as investment.

There are many benefits to buying rental property as an investment. When you consider the three types of income – earned, capital gains and passive; we find that passive income ranks higher than earned income.

Diversification

Rental property is not co-related to the stock market. One can achieve a fair level of diversification with stock like returns. Of course, Bonds allow you to diversify; with much lower returns.

Familiarity With The Investment If one has already purchased their home; then it is a quick learning curve with rental investment properties.
