Real estate investing Resources in Sacramento

https://darrenbbrownseller1.carrot.com/real-estate-investing-resources-in-sacramento/ Rental properties can be a great investment. From the cash flow to the security of owning a real asset, real estate investors have known for a long time that rental properties are an amazing asset to keep in your portfolio. But one question persists that needs to be answered before you invest, “What makes a good rental property in Sacramento?” After all, you don’t want to invest in ANY property – you want to invest in the right one! Because you bought a property doesn’t make it a investment. many people buy a home and it is just that a home or another home. There is a big difference between buying and investing. Key point is that an investment reaps a return. So, here are 3 of the best factors that make up an ideal rental property in the 95823 zip code and surrounding area.

What Makes A Good Rental Property In Sacramento?

#1. Strong House, Cosmetic Upgrades Only

Unless you’re handy, or have a lot of experience, you may not want to invest in a house that requires a lot of effort to get it ready to rent. After all, every day that you delay renting is a day that you don’t get the cash flow you desire. Vacancies mean loss of cash flow. A strong, well-built house that is free of major  problems and only needs cosmetic upgrades is a great place to start. Yes, you might pay a little more up-front for this kind of property but you’ll save time and money afterward in getting it ready to rent. Besides, it must be durable. We call it tenant proof, sort of like child proof for adults. Even, some of the most experienced investors don’t like doing major repairs.

#2. Affordable

While you might want to spend a little more for a house that is already in good condition, you’ll still want to make sure that it’s affordable. In the Sacramento area, there’s a mix of properties – some are affordable and others are not. (This is what we do here at Darren Buys Homes Cash – we find the affordable ones!

#3. Good Rental Market

You also need to make sure that this is a good rental market. Sacramento is a place where there is a lack of housing inventory, despite all the new construction. Over the years Sacramento has boomed with all sorts of new employment. We have major sports teams playing soccer, baseball and basketball. More and more jobs are being created and not enough housing. Rent is slightly above or equal to the average mortgage. Typical rent anyplace in Sacramento is $2500.00 for a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 2 car garage home. On the other hand, the market is adjusting and has slowed down and now is a buyers market. The truth is, not all markets are good rental markets. In some areas, everyone buys and nobody rents; in other areas, everybody rents but they move too much. A good rental area is one where there are plenty of long-term renters.
