Alternative Investing

Many people don’t want to invest in Real Estate because of the three T’S, Tenants, 

Toilets & Termites, and I understand completely. But there are other ways to get 

into Real Estate without involving yourself.  Many new companies are now opening up

investing ​opportunities for everyone like crowdfunding.

What is crowdfunding ? It’s the practice of funding a project or venture by raising 

small amounts of money from a large number of people, typically via online. So you 

can invest your money without being involved, in other words a passive investor 

where you sit back and collect, now I’m not endorsing crowdfunding, you have to do 

your due diligence before investing in any of these projects.

Another way besides these funding portals, you can invest in a REIT, what is a Reit? 

A reit, or real estate investment trust, is a company that owns or finances income 

producing real estate, Reits provide investors of all types regular income streams 

through a dividend you can get either monthly or every quarter depending on the 

company.

So don’t feel you have to be a landlord, just do your research you have plenty of 

choices to be in Real Estate.
