The IDEAL™ Wealth Building Principles of Investing

The wealth building principles are associated in the acronym IDEAL™

These principles help us to indentify Real Estate we believe is an IDEAL™ investment.

Income	When a property is rented out it produces income to pay for its own investment. When more income is generated per month than monthly expenses it produces positive cash flow.
Deductions	In addition to interest payments and expense deductions we are also allowed to take depreciation deductions as well, these combined deductions can create significant tax benefits for us.
Equity	As tenants make our mortgage payments for us a portion of those payments go towards principle reductions, this is equity build up for us.
Appreciation	Each year the value of Real Estate goes up in value 25-year average is a 6% gain per year.
Leverage	When we borrow money from the bank to purchase Real estate (usually 95%) the 5% we invest is leveraged to generate returns on the full amount of the purchased property. Example (we put $10K in to purchase a $200K property as that property appreciates at 6% a year this is an increase of 200K x 6% =12K in appreciation. 12K from a 10K investment is a 120% return on our $10K investment).

As an investment encompasses each one of the wealth building principles we give that investment that star. (Exp) as an investment utilizes leverage we give that investment A STAR for Leverage. As an investment utilizes the deduction principle we give that investment the Deductions star.

All of our properties will be identified as having our IDEAL™ rating.
