Making Money In Property
There are three probable outcomes from property investing:

• You make money
• You break even
• You lose money

And in the world of property investing you is capable of only make money in two ways - either capital appreciation and/or positive income returns.

Capital appreciation is straightforward enough. Eventually your property increases in value so that it becomes worth more later than what you in the beginning paid for it (this is also known as an increase in equity).

The only trick with capital appreciation is to keep in mind that the amount you pay for a property is the contract price in addition closing costs and the amount you obtain when you sell is the sales price less agent's commission, your loan payment and other selling costs.

You can only turn your capital appreciation into optimistic cashflow by redeeming your equity in the course of refinancing or by selling your property.
