Bank Savings Deposit accounts cannot maintain the same purchasing power that your money has due to the annual inflation. We define investing as an act of expending money with the expectation of getting something in return. We mostly associate it with the items listed above. Risk are often associated with investing, after all, investing is a form of business. But what makes Real Estate Investing different?
WHY INVEST IN REAL ESTATE?
Unlike any other form of investments, Real Estate Investing has the same benefits that all other investment options have but combined. The goal of investing is to make your money grow more than the inflation rate. With this in mind, our goal is to hit more than 3% [the average inflation rate of the Philippines] of growth per year in order to sustain the purchasing power of your money and at the same time yield more income in investing. All investment options increases the value of our money over time, but here are the reason that sets Real Estate Investing apart:
- High Cash Yield - Among all investment options, only real estate investing has a two outlets in yielding cash: rental and resale. Unlike bonds, stocks, mutual funds, and commodities, only real estate has the option to yield cash by renting the property. All other investment options has the power to appreciate or gain interest, however, only real estate has the advantage of earning income by renting, or by selling properties for a profit. With this in mind, a purchase of an Alveo Property automatically puts the unit under the Ayala Property Management Corporation, a service partner that provides rental and resale services to all Ayala Land unit owners.
- Equity Build-Up - Real Estate properties appreciate over time. In prime locations inside Ayala Land masterplanned communities [Makati, Bonifacio Global City, Nuvali, Arca South, Vertis North], capital appreciation of a real estate unit harness more capital growth compared to real estate options in other locations. This is due to the Ayala Land heritage and a unique charm of bring people, commerce, and growth to these developments.With this in mind, Alveo Land offers pre-selling properties at construction prices that increases as the building nears completion, one of the ways that investors are assure of a capital appreciation.
- Leverage - In real estate, no unit is the same. Unlike in other form of investment options where we invest in a given package. This gives real estate the advantage of choosing a unit with the best views, orientations, sizes, and location. And the best units are also the most easier to resale or to rent out, providing an opportunity to leverage for a higher rental or resale prices. Investing in a pre-selling development also gives an investor the advantage of a lighter payment scheme, and zero interest rates over the construction period, this gives an individual more cash flow.
- Hard Asset - One main advantage of investing in a real estate property is the ability to use it, it is a physical property that is registered in the government office. Unlike other investment options, in real estate, you have the chance to posses the unit that you invested in, you can either use it, rent it, or sell it. With the prior being in another perspective. It is also convenient as it provides one of our basic needs, housing.
HOW DO YOU SELECT A REAL ESTATE PROPERTY?
There are thousands of real properties for sale in various location, how do you select among these. Before the selection process begins, you must first evaluate yourself and what are your goals in investing in real estate; would you like to have a rental property, a resale property, a combination of both, or a place you can call home. Here are some ideas to ponder on:
- Rental Property - In the rental market, the higher the traffic the better, and the more crowded a location is the better too. People traffic is one of the indicator that you have the right location. When there is human traffic, there is work being done, there is growth, and there is an opportunity to provide a solution to the traffic. This makes Makati and Bonifacio Global City one of the best places to invest as there are already millions of people that converge in these locations during day time, and most of them dont even live in close proximity to the area. Alveo Land properties are found in key locations in these business district; like the Lerato, Kroma, and Solstice in Makati City; Serendra, High Street South, and Park Triangle in Bonifacio Global City.
- Resale Property - The goal of selling a property is to have a profit, a reasonable profit. In selecting a property for resale, location is always the key to assure capital appreciation. A very beautiful building would not appreciate much if it is in the middle of nowhere, put that same building inside a business district, and you can expect higher demands that drives the prices upward. This meets with our goal for capital appreciation. Another thing in buying and selling properties is to have a keen eye for the future, masterplanned estates such as Alviera, Nuvali, Arca South, and Vertis North already have a time line of development once it offers units for sale. With this in mind, you will already see what has been laid out and what the location would look like in 5 - 10 years time. And this is an advantage too, pre-selling properties also offers flexible payment schemes, and zero interest rates during the construction terms.
Just like in any other business, location is always the key. What is nice about Alveo Land projects is that they are all centrally located in a highly networked location inside key business districts in the Philippines. This ensure human traffic and better work-life balance for its investors/residents. How would you start your first real estate invesment? Would you sell for profit or a continuous monthly income by renting.
