There is a certain amount of risk associated with any investment. It is inevitable that you will incur at least some loss as the trends of the market change. A countermeasure or a method that you can use to minimize your loss is to diversify your portfolio. This simply involves spreading out your investments among several asset classes.
Individuals choose to create diversity through a variety of ways – they buy gold, invest in opposing asset classes, and choose alternate investments. Diversification is important as it allows you to protect your portfolio as a whole. In the event a certain sector of the market is not doing well, another segment may be developing. This means that you will continue to make a certain profit on your ventures. Here is how you can diversify your portfolio:
You should augment your investments at regular intervals. People typically invest with a lump-sum – they invest a certain amount of money in the beginning of the venture and then do not invest anymore. A better way to invest is with financing a specific sum of money at regular intervals, irrespective of the current share prices. This is often known as dollar-cost averaging. You buy a greater number of shares when the prices are low and fewer shares when the cost is higher. This method allows you to neutralize the highs and the dips that are a result of market instability.
One of the key points of diversifying your portfolio is to spread your finances throughout a few sectors. An additional rule to accompany this diversification is to invest in what you know. Many people tend to invest in a sector that they are not familiar with simply because it is doing well. This, however, may prove to be harmful as you are not entirely acquainted with the proceedings of that segment. Instead, you should always invest in companies and sectors that you are accustomed to and may be even use. It is even more effective if these industries have very little correlation with one another. Then, what happens to one market will not necessarily affect another trade.
The above strategies will help you minimize the risk that is associated with financing. You, however, will still have to abandon an investment when certain ventures fail. It is often difficult for people to do as they have put in a great deal of time and effort in a venture. They also hope that the situation changes. You need to monitor how well or badly a company is performing. You should be able to read the signs that typically befall a company that is struggling or will go under. It is only by remaining informed will you be able to stay ahead of the game and prevent extreme losses.
There is no formula or applied theory that can truly help you determine how well your investments will do. This is why you should always seek a certain amount of security to avoid too great a loss. It is all about being smart with your ventures and making the right calls at the right time.

And there is nothing really miraculous about win/win transactions that offer creative means to dealing with “problematic” properties.
Take for example a commercial building in Downtown Los Angeles that just went into contract for $6M. The caveat on the deal was the fact that the former owner is willing to carry a large chunk of the new mortgage! Imagine not even having to go through all the additional work of obtaining traditional financing.
Of course, deals like these don’t come often, but they do appear. Will you be ready to structure a killer deal when lady luck is knocking on YOUR door? What would happen if you came across a phenomenal property plagued with a little challenging issue? Would you be able to handle putting the deal together?
Well, if you are a Realty411 reader and regular expo guest, creative transactions are not an issue!! Realty411 fans know that real estate is 100% negotiable and that win/win structures can be created to benefit both frustrated sellers and buyers willing to turn “problematic” properties around.
(We use quotation marks around “problematic” become many issues are perceived as “problems” when in actuality they can be “opportunities” for someone willing to take on that challenge.)
At our upcoming series of Realty411 expos in California and around the country, guests will learn directly from investors who are structuring deals just like this one, which was shared by one of our featured speakers, Hector Padilla, GRI/Broker of SWI Realty, Inc.
Here is another awesome deal he recently did: He purchased a PARKING LOT in Los Angeles for $75,000 and sold it one year later for $1.375 Million. Yes, another miracle deal in the City of Angels!
Isn’t it time that you added real estate into your investment portfolio? And if you have it already, is it not about time that you stepped it up a bit to keep up with the high cost of living in California?
Realty411 is giving you the opportunity to LEARN, CONNECT and GET MOTIVATED about what real estate can do in your life. We are ready to share our knowledge with you… ARE YOU READY TO TAKE ACTION?
