    Some entrepreneurs are forced to use personal assets, such as stocks or savings, but others use business assets, such as equipment, inventory and receivables. Regardless of whether it’s personal or business related, real estate is an excellent asset. Lenders prefer real estate because it’s permanent and maintains a fairly stable value. However, business owners must be sure to first verify what type of real estate is accepted as collateral, what percentage of the value is lendable and if there are any particular property characteristics that may disqualify the real estate from financing, such as wells or septic systems. When attempting to use collateral to secure property development loans, pay close attention to the financial risks and only attempt high risk high return loans if the conditions are…

    With Micheal Porter’s 5 forces analysis, the real estate turned out to be not a very favourable industry to start business or invest in at this moment. Being a not very profitable industry, in addition to the new restrictions from the government now a day unlike two years back the real estate has no or little threat of new entrants.

The benefits of homeownership I want to give people are, the benefit of privacy, the appreciation of the investment, and increased equity.…
