{Business Area} Real Estate Investments: How to Pick Profitable Rental Property

Low home prices combined with low interest rates makes this a great time to purchase {Business Area} real estate investment property. One of the most popular real estate investments is rental property. Investing in rental property can be profitable, if you pick properties that meet the following criteria:

Require minimal maintenance. {Business Area} real estate with newer appliances, smaller yards and that have been well-maintained, are typically easier and less expensive to continue to maintain.
Attract long-term, well-paying renters. Your goal is to get renters who will take good care of your {Business Area} real estate, stay a long time and pay on time. While lower-priced properties near colleges may be easy to rent, they typically attract students who tend to be loud, messy and short term renters. On the other hand, rental properties that are in the highest price range may attract renters who are in jobs that require them to move frequently or who will quickly purchase homes of their own.
Located in highly-populated, low-crime areas. Steer away from rural areas where there are fewer potential renters. Look for homes in neighborhoods that have low crime rates and good school districts. Neighborhoods near public transportation, grocery stores and shopping malls attract renters.
Zoned for renting. Always check to be sure the property you intend to lease is approved to be rented by local zoning or home owners’ associations.
Priced properly. Your purchase price must be low enough to allow you to set the rent within a range the local market will bear and that will earn a profit for you. Be sure to take into consideration every expense of owning, maintaining and renting this property, when considering if you can turn a profit and have a positive cash flow from the start.

    We had made a move out west from North Carolina for business reasons, and we did not have time to finish some upgrades such as new carpet, fixing a small area of mold in one of the bathrooms, and some painting.  We had selected an investor in NC who advertised quick closings, all cash for as-is homes.  They backed out of the deal at the last minute, and we had a home under construction in Utah.


    We called We Buy Homes for Cash, and they were wonderful.  Blake, Mason and Bryan made the whole process smooth and stress free.  We were able to close in about two weeks.

    We are about to close on our new home in Utah.  This would not have been possible without their professional and personable service.  I highly recommend We Buy Homes for Cash.

    I had been wanting to sell my house for several months but every realtor I talked to needed me to clean up my house and I have 30 years worth of stuff here.  I was not able to get rid of my stuff or pack it all away.  My home also needed some repairs like the roof and some plumbing stuff.  I called We Buy Homes Cash and the experience was amazing.  They gave me $2,000 up front so I could buy the moving supplies I needed to pack.  Then they let me stay in the house for 2 weeks after they closed.  This was so helpful.  Thank you so much Tyson and all the others that helped me make my move to Ohio possible.

  • David Moore

    If you're looking to sell your home, I can't think of a more reputable and fair team to work with.  Tyson and his team went above and beyond to make sure they understood the process of working with a cash buyer went.  The process was very smooth and painless and I am sincerely thankful for their services.
