Can You Buy Property With No Money Down?

Although we do believe it’s possible to find a buyer who is so motivated that she’ll actually pay you to take a property off her  hands, the  reality is that the vast  majority of such properties don’t  prove to be profitable for you in the long run.  Ask yourself — why would  anyone give away a property unless it had  some really  serious problems?

Talking with tenants about renter’s insurance

Renter’s insurance is secured by and  paid  for by your  tenants and  covers losses to the  tenant’s personal or business property as a result of fire, theft, water damage, or other loss.  As a rental property owner, you benefit from renter’s insurance because it covers any claims in the  event that the  tenant starts a fire or flood. The tenant’s premiums go up rather than yours. This tenants insurance is in addition to the insurance for rental property discussed here:

Most commercial tenants have  this  coverage, but  residential tenants often think they  don’t  need renter’s insurance because they  have  few valuables. But renter’s insurance covers much more than just their personal possessions; it also protects against liability claims made by injured guests or visitors. The insurance also offers  supplemental living expenses if the  rental unit becomes uninhabitable due to fire or smoke damage. And it protects the  tenant in the event that the  tenant causes damage to another tenant’s property. You can suggest or even  require that your  tenants carry rental insurance, but  be aware that in some areas your  competitors may not follow your  lead and you may find that you’d have  trouble keeping your  rentals occupied if you insisted that your  tenants carry renter’s insurance.

Real Estate Cost of Capital

For prospective real estate investors who feel tenants and building maintenance are ongoing headaches, buying undeveloped land may appear attractive. If you buy land in an area that's expected to experience expanding demand in the years ahead, you should be able to make a tidy return on your investment. This is called buying in the path of progress, but of course the trick is to buy before everybody realizes that new development is moving in your direction.


When you buy undeveloped land your investment may take longer to be paid back and therefore you need to be especially aware of your real estate cost of capital.

Types of Rental Properties

If you've been in the market for a home, you know that in addition to single- family homes, you can choose from numerous types of attached or shared housing including apartment buildings, condominiums, townhomes, and co- operatives. In this section, we provide an overview of each of these properties and show how they may make an attractive real estate investment for you.

From an investment perspective, our top recommendations are apartment buildings and single-family homes. We generally don't recommend attached-housing units. If you can afford a smaller single-family home or apartment building rather than a shared-housing unit, buy the single-family home or apartments.
