5 Reasons Why Real Estate

Can Be Your Solution in 2021 The impact of the Covid 19 pandemic on the economy of the entire world shows that you need to find a way to invest your money so you never suffer great losses. A great way to do this is by investing in the real estate market. The real estate sector is gearing up for a post-pandemic boom. With sales, demand, and prices skyrocketing, it’s a good idea to plan towards investing in real estate in 2021. When considering making a real estate investment, you need to know the reasons for taking that step. You need to know the options you have before making your move. These are 5 great reasons why real estate could be your financial solution in 2021.

FIX AND FLIP

This term has gained popularity through reality TV shows. It is also commonly known as house flipping. “Fix and flip” is used to describe the buying of outdated homes at low prices by a real estate investor. The investor then renovates the home and sells it to another buyer at a higher price. Experts predict that house flipping will yield a lot of profit during the course of 2021. If you’re looking to make a lot of money within a short period, the fix and flip strategy is quite effective. However, it is also possible to suffer huge losses if it isn’t done properly. It is important to do proper research and get the relevant knowledge to ensure your success.

WHOLESALING

Real estate wholesaling is a great option if you’re looking to have faster turnaround times in your deals. Wholesaling involves an investor searching for homes that could be sold for less than their normal value. When the necessary purchase contract details are settled and signed with the seller, the investor looks for an end-buyer to whom he gives the contract, but at a higher price. The wholesaler (investor) will take the difference as his share, while the original seller is paid the amount agreed upon. If you want to go into real estate wholesaling, you need to understand the laws that apply in the area of interest. In some jurisdictions, only licensed agents can be paid commission in deals concerning real estate.

HAVENLIFESTYLES.COM

BUY AND HOLD

This is exactly as the name implies. Buy and hold involves an investor acquiring real estate property and holding on to it for an extended period of time. The reason for this is simple -- appreciation. The investor waits for an increase in the property’s market value, so it can be sold for a return on investment (ROI). Renting out the property while “holding” could also help generate income to cover recurring expenses. Experts in thesis or dissertation help say this is a very popular strategy among middle-age students.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUSTS

Sometimes, you don’t need to actually own property physically to go into real estate investment, and REITs are a perfect way to do that. The main function of REITs is to make profit through proper management of real estate properties. You could invest in such firms and gain partial ownership through investing in their shares. This way, you can get income from the shares as well as sales profit.

With studies showing that home prices are expected to increase in 2021, buying and holding is a great idea. If you’re considering this, it’s best to make sure you invest in a location where appreciation and income gain are highly likely.

RENTAL PROPERTIES

Rental properties are a great way to enter the real estate investment market. This is a long-term type of investment in which an investor buys homes and then rents them out. If you rent the home out at a rate that is greater than what it costs to maintain the property, you are set to enjoy good profits from this strategy. It is almost a given for the property to appreciate as time goes on, and you can even purchase more properties by leveraging its equity. The major obstacle to acquiring this kind of property is that you may need huge capital to purchase it. However, you could consider meeting lenders who could assist you.

Owning actual physical property is a much bigger risk than buying shares in REITs. However, the profits from REITs are much smaller, and the cost of investment may be higher.

The Bottom Line

There are a lot of reasons to go into the real estate sector. As a prospective real estate investor, you need to be mindful of your objectives and budget. Do your research, study the market and make your choices wisely.

Tips for Working from Home & Navigating Work Space A

t the onset of COVID-19, more than 100 million Americans have been

ordered to stay home with several states issuing stay-at-home and shelter-inplace orders. This means adjusting to an entirely new structure of working, at least for now, for many who have never worked from home before. As someone who spent 3 months of an internship (entirely remote) in an uncomfortable, temporary rental home as my family was waiting for renovations on our new home, I know that working from home can be a challenge and occasionally isolating. The way you utilize your space is the key to staying productive and sane. Whether you’re navigating working in a tiny apartment with your partner, stuck at home with your kids, or working alone, there are certain ways for maintaining a schedule and structure so that you’re able to delineate your workspace from your home life.

every day, change into comfortable but put-together clothes other than your robe or pajamas, and take a brief lunch break away from your desk. One of the most important factors is having a dedicated workspace. Having a space you go to each day will help you get in the right mindset to focus on the tasks at hand without getting distracted.

Especially those who live in a cramped apartment with two roommates or even a spouse. Companies like IKEA, Amazon, and Target offer “small space” desk options like wallmounted, floating, lap, and standing desks to accommodate small home living so you won’t be stuck working on your bed or couch.

HAVENLIFESTYLES.COM

CULTURE

aking a short break away from work will allow you to distance yourself, and then feel recharged once you get back, preventing burnout and further feelings of claustrophobia. Along the lines of following a work schedule, John Fitch & Max Frenzel, co-authors of Time Off Book, suggest that we calculate the amount of time we normally have to commute and use that time as our “rest” allowance. If you usually had a 30-minute subway ride or drive, that time was probably spent preparing for the day ahead. Take 30 minutes to do a relaxing ritual—whether it’s yoga, stretching, video chat with friends/family or catching up on the news. For parents with kids at home, NPR recommends making a plan for education and environment. With schools shut down, it’s advisable to not regroup children, so don’t plan on any playdates. Technology can serve as a learning tool and distraction by doing “virtual” playdates via FaceTime and services like Roblox, which allows children to chat while playing a game together. In these uncertain times, the news and navigating home relationships can serve as distractions and even triggers for stress and anxiety. Finding ways to break up the monotony and learning to cohabitate in your space will allow you to be more productive and happier each day.

5 Simple Design Trends

to Boost Your Work From Home Productivity Setting up your home office can be tricky. The most important thing is to find an area that can be your designated workspace. This will help you reduce stress and create a clear distinction between your work hours and free time. Try to do all your work in the office space and keep a separate sofa space for relaxation and leisure time. Where you place it, how you choose to design it, and what kind of furniture you use are important decisions that may impact your work productivity. We listed five things to keep in mind that will help you design the best workspace for you and your needs.

Invite nature to your home office

By bringing plants, flowers, and greenery into your working space, you will make it more beautiful. Plants also help clean and humidify the air — something that comes in very handy when you’re spending all your days in front of the computer. If you opt for scented flowers and plants, you get the added benefit of some natural aromatherapy.

2 Source: Grovemade

Keep it simple and minimalistic

To maximize your productivity at home, consider limiting visual distractions in the area where you work. By keeping your workspace tidy and decluttered, it’s easier to stay focused on the task at hand. Closed storage such as boxes and cupboards instead of open shelves are an excellent means for creating a more zen home office. Ending each workday by clearing your desk is a great way to set yourself up for success the next day.

Infuse your home office with inspiration

Keep it comfy — and healthy

Be conscious of colors

When working from home, sometimes the days are very much one like the other. To make sure you keep your energy levels high, decorate your home office with items that inspire you. Are you building a business from home? Perhaps you want to keep a mood board over your desks with images representing what you’re trying to achieve. Are you working to save up for a trip or a house? Put pictures of your goals so you can see them and stay motivated.

Comfort is essential, especially when we’re spending all our time in the same space. First, you need a great office chair. But you may also want to consider adding options, such as a standing desk and a lounge chair, so you’re not in the same position all day long. This will feel better, help you be more productive, and help you avoid work-related pain in your back, neck, and shoulders.

Different colors affect your mood in different ways. While red can make you feel stressed and aggressive, blue has a calming effect. By consciously choosing what colors you use in your workspace and being aware of how they make you feel, you can affect your mood, energy, and productivity during the workday.

Restore Remodel Renew “I would highly recommend Restore North Shore. The project scope was accurately assessed and quoted. The project remained on task with flexibility that allowed us to make some changes mid-stream. I found this valuable as it’s hard to envision products and scale on paper. Also, the project was on time and on budget (with no surprise overages). The team was great to work and made the project fun! VERY pleased with the end result and I will definitely use Restore North Shore for all future renovation projects!” -Winnetka, IL

Transform your house into the haven of your dreams as you spend more time at home.

“We were referred to Restore North Shore by a friend who’s kitchen was beautifully re-modeled by Margaret, Nef and their team. From the first day we could not have been happier with their work. Every phone call or text was returned promptly, problems were addressed calmly, and every effort was made to stay within the initial budget. We have had other construction projects in the past and this one was by far the least disruptive to our everyday lives and the results far exceeded what we thought could be done with the space.” -Wilmette, IL
