Why real estate belongs in your portfolio
We connect investors with opportunities across the U.S. (and beyond). If you’re new, here’s why real estate has been a cornerstone for building wealth and generating dependable income.
Historically resilient
Over long periods, U.S. housing has tended to appreciate while providing utility and income potential. Widely followed benchmarks—like the S&P CoreLogic Case‑Shiller and FHFA House Price Index—show that, despite cycles, housing values have trended upward over multi‑decade horizons. Real estate is also a tangible asset, which many investors prefer during inflationary periods.
Generational wealth building
Real estate lets families compound equity over time through amortization (paying down loans) and appreciation. The Federal Reserve’s Survey of Consumer Finances has consistently shown higher median net worth among homeowners vs. renters—ownership creates an asset base that compounds.
Passive income potential
Rental properties can generate monthly cash flow after expenses. Even modest positive cash flow, combined with loan amortization and potential appreciation, can meaningfully grow net worth over time. Many investors use property managers or systems to keep it as hands‑off as possible.
Diversification & control
Real estate behaves differently than many paper assets, which helps diversify overall risk. Investors also have more direct control—improving a unit, changing strategy, or refinancing when conditions are favorable—all levers that don’t exist with most passive assets.
Leverage can amplify outcomes
Sensible financing lets you control a larger asset with less upfront capital, which can multiply equity growth when markets cooperate. The key is buying with clear assumptions and conservative buffers for rates, repairs, and vacancies.
