Wake-Up Money, Secrets to Investing

Most people think of investment property only in terms of monthly cash flow, but that’s just one piece of the puzzle. Even with $0 monthly cash flow, your investment is still working for you in multiple ways:

1. Cash Flow -$0/$65,000 = 0% Return On Investment

2. Leverage -You own $275k of real estate for a $61,875 cash investment

3. Debt Reduction -$2,256 in principal reduction the first year. In essence the tenant is buying you the house and giving it to you at the end of the loan. $2,256/$61,875 = 3.65% Return On Investment

4. Tax Savings -About $8k/year in depreciation.

5. Appreciation -If this house goes up 5% in value this year, it will increase by $13,750. $13,750/$61,875 = 22.22% Return On Investment

When this property is free and clear, you will have nearly $22,800.00 a year in “Wake-up” money. Of course, by then the rent (and the “Wake-Up” money) will probably be a lot higher, as will the property’s value.
