Investing in Real Estate - Creating Financial Security for Retirement

Should real estate be a part of your retirement strategy? Is real estate a good investment? Do your clients ask you about real estate investment?

 

To answer these questions, you need to understand the numbers and be able to assess investment opportunities, and the various financing options available through banks and other lenders. 

 

This course is designed to introduce you to these concepts and look at ways you can increase your value proposition to your clients by implementing this knowledge into your daily business activities. It will raise your awareness on how real estate investments could help towards paying off a mortgage sooner, paying for kids’ education, providing funds for a down payment, and planning for retirement.

 

Learning objectives:

  • Understand the real numbers and why real estate should be a part of your overall investment/retirement strategy
  • Understand how much you need for retirement
  • Understand financing options and lender options, and the impacts of poor financing strategies
  • Understand how to invest in real estate when the big banks won’t loan you the money
