what does a real estate investment firm do?
Real estate investing. Real estate investing involves the purchase, ownership, management, rental and/or sale of real estate for profit.[1] Improvement of realty property as part of a real estate investment strategy is generally considered to be a sub-specialty of real estate investing called real estate development. Real estate is an asset form with limited liquidity relative to other investments, it is also capital intensive (although capital may be gained through mortgage leverage) and is highly cash flow dependent.
