Loan to Value (LTV) ratio is a frequently used formula that financial institutions and other lenders review before they approve a mortgage. The LTV ratio reflects the loan amount you are applying for versus the property’s assessed value. Lenders frequently look at LTVs as a benchmark for how likely the borrower will make payments.
Inflation drives up the prices of most goods and services while decreasing the purchasing power of a dollar. This can spell trouble for many businesses and investments, but multifamily real estate has a unique opportunity to thrive during times of inflation. Rental prices and the appreciation of the property are likely to increase as a result of inflation, and this can lead to a substantial payoff for property owners and investors alike.

We look at holding periods, how they work, and how they impact investors.
A 1031 is a tax-deferred exchange for real estate investors. This process permits the owner of an investment property to sell it and buy a similar entity while postponing capital gains tax. A 1031 exchange eliminates taxes under certain terms. This is considered one of the premier benefits of real estate investment.
Liquidity refers to how easily an asset can be traded for money without affecting its market price. Cash is the most liquid asset you can own, while real estate investments tend to offer very little liquidity.
