Now, we are going to look at how you can make your first investment in real estate for high returns on investment, regardless of the amount of money you want to put in.


Real estate is property comprised of land and any structure(s) or natural resource on it, including water bodies and mineral deposits, as well as any flora or fauna.
Based on its use, real estate can be grouped into three broad categories:

-Industrial properties, e.g. factories and mines.
-Commercial properties, e.g. office buildings, retail store buildings, and warehouses.
-Residential properties, e.g. undeveloped land, condominiums, and private residences.

Investment opportunities in real estate


1. Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs):
This is one of the easiest ways to make real estate investments without actually acquiring a physical property. REITs are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They are a form of collective investment scheme, which pools funds from investors and use them to acquire income-generating real estate.

The portfolio of underlying assets is managed by a professional whose job is to maximize your returns. With REITs, you hold an indirect interest in real estate on a flow-through basis, which means that you hold the property as if it were a direct investment.

REITs are traded on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE). To buy one, you have to go through your stock broker. It’s just like buying or selling shares.

REITs are a solid investment stock that can earn you regular income. The benefits include the following:

-Requires no minimum investment.
-Offers tax advantages.
-It’s a highly liquid way to invest in real estate. You won’t need a realtor to cash out your investment.
-REITs pay high yields in the form of dividends.
-Provides you the opportunity to share in non-residential properties like malls, industries, and hotels.


2. Land flipping/banking
Another great way to invest is to buy land and sell it at a higher price. It is particularly profitable when you buy in a rapidly developing area, in which case you can make up to 300% in profits within a few months, or years, as the case may be.

You can start small by buying just a plot. Or if you have enough capital, buy as much land as you can and keep selling all year round.


While acquiring lands, keep the following in mind:

Buy in areas that are rapidly developing if you want to sell within a couple of months. Some areas are faster than others.
Ensure you obtain all the documents for the land that show you are buying from the legitimate owner. The documents should include a Certificate of Occupancy or a Governor’s consent. Ensure that you don’t get mixed up in land issues. Acquire lands with the appropriate land titles.
Benefits

• Low or zero maintenance costs.
• Ease of sale
• High profits


3. Open space leasing
In this scenario, you buy land in a good location. While you wait for the property value to rise,you can earn monthly fees by leasing the land to people for temporary use. For instance, you can lease it to a church, mechanics or car wash, or other businesses that can construct a makeshift structure that will be easily dismantled when you are ready to sell.

Benefits

• Extra monthly profits before actual land sale, etc.



4. Property development
Property development requires a huge capital investment. It involves acquiring depreciated properties that you can renovate and rent or sell at a very high profit margin. As with any real estate investment, a good location is crucial if you want to make reasonable profits.

Before you go ahead to invest in property development, you have to make sure that the development costs will be far outweighed by the asking price of the property when the renovation is done. So if you spend like 2million naira in renovations, make sure you can sell the property for at least 3 or 4 million naira.
Listed bellow is one of the benefits:

• Earn a higher profit than when you buy and sell undeveloped land.


Investments are essential for wealth creation. It’s not enough to leave your cash in the bank, where you will get negligible monthly interests. Invest in real estate today. It is something you have to do at some point before you retire, if you want to be comfortable financially. Why not give yourself a good head start?
