Unlocking the Upper-Middle Class: The Untold Power of Real Estate in Your Wealth Journey
Leverage helps you earn outsized gains on your cash investment in real estate. To use easy math, imagine you buy a $100,000 rental property, financing 80% of it with a loan. It appreciates by a typical 4% in the first year, rising to $104,000 in value. That $4,000 gain translates to a 20% return on your cash down payment of $20,000.
George Shada of G&R Investment Group explains that he didn’t start investing in real estate thinking he’d get rich (although he has, by many definitions). “I just wanted more freedom than my old day job offered,” he adds. “But after buying my first rentals in Lincoln, Nebraska, I started to see how powerful this business could be. Now I own a portfolio that not only generates income but has grown substantially in value. Real estate gave me a clear path to the upper-middle class by turning sweat equity into actual net worth.”
