Is Real Estate a Good Investment in 2025?

Yes, indeed, it is—and likely always will be!

 

 

 

Real estate has been a popular investment, historically speaking and for good reason. Here’s why:

 

  • Cash Flow: Rental properties can bring in steady income when you manage them right.
  • Leverage: Real estate lets you use financing to buy properties, which can increase your returns.
  • Long-Term Growth: While home values can go up and down, real estate grows in value over time, making it a smart choice for the future.

 

Since everyone needs a roof over their head, real estate remains a trusted investment. And for entrepreneurs, when done wisely, it offers countless opportunities and can be incredibly rewarding. There are several ways to invest in real estate: personal use, leasing properties, fixing and flipping, and so much more. Many other possibilities which makes it a valuable investment choice. So, whichever way you choose to invest in real estate, always keep in mind that you’re building momentum for the future.

 

A SMALL TIP FOR HOME SELLERS:

It’s always the RIGHT TIME TO SELL! There’s always a buyer looking for a property just like yours! Many people think only certain seasons, like spring and summer, are the best times to sell. That’s not true. There’s no denying there are more buyers out there in the spring, looking to move before summer. You can still sell your home any time of the year!

During spring, buyers are often more motivated to close. In the summer and fall, people are still looking to move—especially if they’re relocating for work or school. Winter might seem slow with fewer homes for sale but there are still buyers out there. Your home can stand out even more! Every season has its benefits, so no matter when you decide to sell, there are opportunities to make it work. And of course, with the right agent, you can make it happen. 😉 

 

REAL ESTATE QUIZ!!! 😀

If you could add one of these to your dream home, which would you choose?

  1. A pool with a built-in waterfall
  2. A home gym with all the best equipment
  3. A cozy reading nook with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves
  4. A rooftop deck with a killer view

 

Wouldn’t it be nice to have it all?

2024 Housing Market: More Homes Completed, Fewer New Builds

In 2024, more homes were finished, with 1.628 million completed—up 12.4% from the previous year. This is good news for buyers, as it means more homes are available in a market with low inventory. However, fewer new homes were started or had permits in 2024, down 3.9% and 2.6%, respectively. While December saw a rise in new housing starts, it wasn’t enough to make up for the overall decline. Builders are hopeful for 2025 but continue to face challenges, especially with many homeowners holding onto their properties due to high mortgage rates.
