Hello! I’m Brandice Raybourn, and as a new face in Snohomish County real estate, I’m excited to share some insights about property investment here. It’s an interesting time for those considering becoming landlords – and here’s why.
Firstly, getting loans for property investments is becoming smoother, thanks to the current state of credit markets. And, with the recent shifts in the housing market, more people are looking to rent, increasing demand for rental properties.
Investing in real estate isn’t just about additional income (which is a significant perk). It’s also about building your wealth over time. Many successful investors I meet own multiple properties. Why? It’s simply more efficient. Managing properties that are geographically close means less hassle and a better handle on market trends.
Have you thought about a duplex or triplex? They might be pricier upfront, but they offer more rental space and are easier to manage than several separate houses.
Of course, being a landlord involves responsibilities, like unexpected maintenance issues. But don’t let that deter you – property management companies in our county can take that load off your shoulders.
However, the crucial aspect to consider is your comfort with tough decisions, like potential evictions. It’s part and parcel of being a landlord. If this is a concern, it’s worth thinking about how it might impact your experience.
