All investments involve some degree of risk, and the outcome of any investment is uncertain. Understanding the trade-off between risk and reward can help you evaluate strategies to pursue your financial objectives. Investing in commercial real estate entails substantive risk. You should not invest unless you can sustain the risk of loss of capital, including the risk of total loss of capital. Past performance does not guarantee future results or success. All investors should consider their individual factors in consultation with a professional advisor of their choosing when deciding if an investment is appropriate.3 Reasons Investors Choose Commercial Real Estate
1
Cash flow potential
Commercial real estate investments can generate both short-term and long-term returns for investors. Also known as cash flow, some properties generate monthly or quarterly dividends for investors through things like rent payments.
2
Diversification can help minimize risk
Adding real estate to your portfolio can help diversify your investments away from the stock market. With CrowdStreet, you can further diversify your commercial real estate portfolio by investing in different asset classes, geographies, and risk profiles. Commercial real estate deals also target longer holding periods (often 5+) years, which means they aren’t subject to the same daily ups and downs of stocks.
3
The appreciation of real assets
Also known as upside potential, commercial real estate properties can increase in value thanks to their location, amenities, and the potential increase in rental income. For most commercial real estate investors, the big payday comes when their investment exits or is fully-realized, meaning the property sold or refinanced for more than it cost to build/upgrade. As of
