The Principles of Leased
Investments
Lepic Kroeger, Realtors
Leased investments have always been strong elements of the
Iowa City Commercial Real Estate and the Cedar Rapids Commercial Real Estate
scene. There are great investment
properties in both markets and ample high income investors with a desire to take
advantage of the unique benefits a leased investment offers.
Investors are able to purchase these assets with leverage
using borrowed funds at historically very low bank interest rates. They wait while simple inflation raises both
the value and the rental income over time, and enjoy special tax treatment
which benefits the savvy investor.
Opportunities range from buying a two bedroom condo for
under $100,000 and renting it out, to buying a 100+ unit apartment building or
commercial strip center for several million dollars. The same principles apply to large and small
properties and are enjoyed by local investors.
They say that “real estate is not something you wait to
buy, you buy and wait!” It’s
a catchy saying, but very true!
