Buy and Hold Investing
It is important to know that buy and hold is very
different from fix and flip. This is because
investors purchase properties that they hold onto
for the long term and have no exit strategy.
Investors will purchase a property, fix the
property, and then rent it out. Therefore,
buying and holding is a great way to have an
ongoing cash flow. Slowly Get Rich Compared
to fix and flips, buy and holds are investments
that generate wealth very slowly. However, this
can be a mass accumulation of wealth that allows
for more liquidity. Additionally, real estate
prices appreciate with time. Therefore, the
longer you hold the property, the more it will
appreciate. Peace of Mind Owning a property
and receiving income through rental payments
allows the owner to basically sit back and
receive a steady income. This steady income is a
result of monthly rental payments and automatic
renewals of leases. Its Not a 9 to 5
Job This goes along with having peace of mind.
Buy and hold investments are low maintenance
after they are fixed up and rented out. Most of
the work related to buy and hold investments is
related to finding tenants to fill the spaces
available in your property. The Struggles of
Being a Landlord Having a stable income through
the payments from tenants is great however,

bothersome. Now you have some basic information
