What does an Investment Broker Do?

An investment broker is the mediator between you and the investment world. When you are investing in property, it’s often required that you use an investment broker to negotiate your trades or buy and sell through a broker. An investment broker manages the sales of stocks, bonds, and securities on the financial market. They sell these securities and commodities to clients who are interested in investing in real estate. An investment broker helps clients make the best investment purchases.

When making a real estate investment, you should understand the types of real estate properties that are available to put money into.

Types of Commercial Real Estate Investments:

Commercial Real Estate Investments

Commercial real estate mainly consists of office buildings. They can be leased out to tenants such as companies or small business owners for a steady income. Many office space leases are for multiple years, making your income more steady for a longer period of time.

Retail Investment Properties

Retail real estate includes shopping malls, strip malls, and retail storefronts. In some contracts, investors can negotiate to receive a portion of sales made at the retail location. This gives the store owner incentive to keep the property in good condition.

Industrial Real Estate Investments

Industrial real estate can be anything from warehouses to distribution centers. They are generally long-term agreements between the investor and the leaser.

About Commercial Real Estate Investing

What is Real Estate Investing?

Real estate investing is when you purchase, own, manage, or rent out a piece of property for profit.

Why Invest in Real Estate?

Investing in real estate, if done at the right time and for the right price, usually provides better returns because the real estate market is predictable.

Why Should I Buy a Property in the San Joaquin Valley?

The San Joaquin Valley is one of the most affordable areas in California, making it easier to come up with the money to make the investment.

How Do I Obtain Financing for Investment Real Estate?

  1. Assemble all your paperwork – bank statements, pay stubs, social security card, retirement accounts, driver’s license, etc…
  2. Use a real estate investment broker and an accountant to make it easy to understand everything.
  3. Get pre-approved for a loan
  4. Have at least a 20% down payment – the higher the down payment, the lower the interest rate

How to Evaluate Investment Real Estate?

To determine whether or not to invest in a property, you have to look at the rent ratio. If you are paying more for the mortgage that you can rent the property for, then it’s not a good investment. Make sure you can rent the property for more than your monthly payments.
