If you talking about long term real-estate as far as rentals? it can be "passive" from a time standpoint, you could hire a handy man and/or prop manager to deal with everything so you don't have to be hands on. But you still have all the other risks, vacancy rate, cost for repairs, uncollected rent, etc etc... And now you have more costs because you have to pay someone to do that work, so your "deal" has to be that much better so it can at least pay for the mortgage muchless make you a profit.

Please explain what you thinking about as long term passive investment when it comes to real-estate. I don't know what else would be "long term" unless you were renting it. Building, fliping, etc.. are all short term. You wouldn't buy something and let it sit and do nothing with it for many years then sell it. The only long term passive real-estate investment I can think of is buying your own home.

The thread title was about what we invest our money in... Getting a mortgage to buy a rental property doesn't sound like investing money to me. I can only comment on what I've done...

In the last year, our two properties (which we paid cash for), have taken about 3 days of our time. We use an excellent management company who found good long term tenants, and after taxes, management fees, and expenses, have made 9% on the initial deposit. The end game of course is to wait until the real estate market and economy have recovered, and sell the homes at substantial profits (they were foreclosures of course), but until then I'm happy with a 9% return, which I am confident I will get on the third house I buy this week. This house will not be vacant for more than a week or two, it is in a desirable neighborhood, and we rent them out a couple hundred under market price.

But he is right in any case, you said you just bought another rental unit. Who is going to look after that ? So you do need to be actively involved in it, or have a property management co look after it for you:2 cents:

oops sorry, didnt see your post above ;)

just curious what everyone else does with their money after they pay their bills, or do you just use what is left over to buy stuff ?

Just started with Indie Horror movies..

Gold and also invested a lot in BP once the oil spill happened. Made a fuckton of money from both those investments !

Was in the bond market, But when the short term loans on my rental property were maturing cashed the bonds and paid off the property.

As far as my online business. I do very little capitol investment at this time. Once or if some of domains get to a viable position I will then take them up to the next level. No hurries here.

I do some swing trading and a few longterm stock investments because I am always looking for ways to take the money I earn from my adult business and invest it to make even more money. I'm only 23 years old and I want to put away as much money as I can to help provide for my future goals what ever they may be.

I've invested a few grand into foreign currency.

I have about 2 million in Iraqi Dinar for example that cost me about $1600. We'll find out in 30 years if it pays off haha.

I'm not at the point in life where I really want to deal with a bunch of investments, but it will be pretty interesting to see if or how much money I make off of buying currency from nations that are being rebuilt (allegedly).

strobi 10-26-2010 08:56 AM

I invest most of my money in stocks (I follow Warren Buffet over at gurufocus). And some hedge funds. also, my house is almost payed off, and I'm looking to buy a plot of land to build on... Rest I invest in my sites (a small portion).

pornguy 10-26-2010 08:59 AM

Back into the business as well as other things.

So far my average loss level is at 4.92% over the last five years, leaving an average of 15.02% profit over the last five years. And I have happy, returning cutomers too.


Got icq?

When I retire in the future, real estate will give me a nice cash flow. I will have most paid off before I am 65 so it will just about all be gravy.
