Explore the lucrative world of real estate as a side hustle.
With the cost of everyday items, from groceries to housing, on the rise, many people are seeking additional income sources through side hustles. Remarkably, nearly two in five adults today have a side job, with even higher numbers among Gen Z and millennials, partly driven by the need to manage student loan debts.
If you’re contemplating ways to earn extra cash, real estate investment could be a lucrative option. Despite the current tightness in the housing market, there are still viable opportunities for those who are ready and able to invest. Here are a couple of strategies you might consider:
1. Renting out properties. You could purchase a home to rent it out entirely, by the room, or as a short-term vacation rental. This approach can provide a steady income stream and capitalize on the growing demand for flexible housing solutions.
2. House flipping. Another popular choice is house flipping, where you buy a property that needs work, renovate it, and sell it for a profit. It requires a keen eye for potential, an understanding of the market, and some elbow grease, but the returns can be significant.
Back in 2010, about half of my clients were investors focused on flipping houses. My role was to assist them in finding properties that, once refurbished, would meet their income goals. These experiences have equipped me with insights and knowledge in identifying homes with great potential in up-and-coming areas.
