Real Estate - The buying, selling, leasing, and renting of land, residential and/or commercial property for profit.

Usually considered to be a 'safe' investment due to rising home and land inflation. Investing in real estate can be a great return in profit if bought carefully and sold at the right time. For example, the South Florida real estate market has been booming for the last few years and investors have made millions off of land and homes purchased in the area. However, analysts also predict that that economy may bust in the next few years. Recognizing trends and taking advantage of them are the keys to success in this market.
