The story of old times no longer applies. It's getting harder to find homeowners who have lived in the same home for 60 years and now want to pass it on.
The story that is more well known is that many old-time homeowners have let their properties go and downsized to a smaller residence.
So what does that mean for the first-time homebuyer or the investor that is brand new to the market? Does that change the kinds of opportunities they see?
Actually, it gives both of these groups a lot of buying power they may not be aware of. Most of the time, when homeowners get into financial trouble, it's caused by something major.

As a real estate investor, you have the chance to make money, be a hero and create a steady stream of passive income for yourself all at the same time. So where do you find that magical cape?
If you watch the real estate listings that include foreclosure properties, you can often purchase properties simply by paying the back taxes. Effectively, this makes you the new owner of the property with the power to flip it, sell it back to the previous homeowners or turn it into a rental.
While a rental might sound like a headache at first, consider the possibilities (and the hero portion!) The family that currently lives there would be able to stay and simply pay rent.
You'll earn the money you paid for the back taxes very quickly, depending on how much the rent is set at. It works best if you sit down and talk with the previous homeowners to work out a reasonable financial situation for everyone.
Now, the monthly rent coming in gives you another stream of income and you own the property. How great is that when you can accomplish all three of those items at once?
These are the opportunities that await smart real estate investors in today's market.
The same chances are available with banks who have lists of foreclosures they need to remove from their asset list. By making a reasonable offer and spending whatever is required to fix the location up, you'll increase your portfolio and income level at the same time.

It's true that real estate looks dismal from the outside looking in.
For those who know better though, there are plenty of chances to not only make money, but help others as well.
It's a fulfilling investment in several ways and also allows you to provide for your family no matter what.
