There are many ways to turn a profit with real estate. When you buy a stock, the only way you can make money is if the stock appreciates in value, and you sell it at the good time. With real estate you can make money in many ways, I can name those 12 off the top of my head, and there are many more. That one is the main source of profit investors are going for when buying a rental , and doesn't need an explanation. You turn an instant profit if you manage to buy a property for under market value.

Think foreclosures, quick sales, and awesome negotiation skills. You can make extra money if you stage the property to attract buyers over market value. With stocks, you always buy and sell at market value.

There are many ways to turn a profit with real estate.

With real estate, you can try to beat the market. If you take a mortgage to finance a rental, you are increasing your equity with every mortgage payment. Leverage makes you profit on the full selling price. The bigger the leverage, the greater the return. I rent three rooms by the room, to three tenants. I can charge more than if one family was renting the whole place.

You can divide your family house into a duplex or a triplex and increase the rent.

Secondly, the complexity of remodeling is like very few other trades out there. It will however decrease your profit. Penny stocks and currencies even more so. We ended up not going with this contractor because he was so busy that after 6 weeks to rebid our job, he had still not completed his prices. More ego trip than profit?

Businesses are a different type of tenure and rents are generally higher. They are also safer if you choose a well known business to rent to.

Justin Allen President Desert Coatings. After reading several of the posts, I just had to make one myself. I am a remodeling contractor. I have only been in business for a couple years and I have not had a single unhappy customer yet. It is easier to up with good solid figure when you have a smaller job, but larger remodeling jobs that include several different trades, that is a whole new ball game. There are so many variables that could go wrong for a remodeling contractor during a job, that he could go belly up on a job in one day if things did not work out.

I find scheduling and managing to be one of the most difficult parts of large remodeling projects. Secondly, the complexity of remodeling is like very few other trades out there. There are many days I am jealous of electrician, plumbers and other tradesmen because the have a really good idea what they need and will do everyday. Not so for the remodeler, he has several reigns in one hand and all he can do is hang on some days.

My question to those people out there that are worried about markups. Have you ever checked the markup of products at Home Depot? I can assure that on many products, Home Depot is still not bottom dollar. When you are shopping for a lamp at the store, do you expect to find a package deal consisting of: Believe me, they are getting a good deal! Are you having problems with your contractor??

CSLB works to curtail underground economy contracting activities and reduce unlicensed activity through stings, sweeps and other enforcement actions. In a complaint involving an unlicensed contractor, CSLB may issue a warning letter, a citation, or refer the complaint to the local district attorney for review and possible prosecution. CSLB has limited jurisdiction over unlicensed persons and cannot require an unlicensed person to make repairs to your project or pay restitution.

To file a formal complaint, go here: Please let me know if you have any interest in this story. The mark up is intended to compensate the contractor for his time and labor in securing the materials for the job. He is ripping you off and you are allowing it. He knows you are desperate and is taking full advantage of the situation. It should have taken 1 guy maybe 4 to 6 hrs. In this economy you should be grateful for what you can get not trying to gouge customers. Judging from the posts on this forum -YES!!! Contractor are out to rip off the unexpecting consumer. Has anyone here taken an accounting course.

It's What Happens Between the Before and the After

People want a break down of their prices. Get real, contractors are a gip and should be enforce to have fair accounting practices which include breaking down labor, material, parts, and drive time. I had 1 gallon of water pumped from my crawl space and a boot flashing replaced on my roof which in total took 1 hour of labor. When asked for a breakdown and explaination of charges, the company was still vague and kept changing billing items.

In the end, I took it to the Better Business Bureau and that corrected the problem quickly.

Why Real Estate Is One of the Best Ways to Make Money

The sad part, this company was even accredited by the BBB. Contractors should be castrated in the sense they should no longer long to run an unfair business to even worsen the economy. One of our blog policies is to not allow flaming comments, and calling for castration is uncomfortably close.
