Although there are great benefits to investing in Real Estate equity opportunities for the cash flow, appreciation, and tax advantages, investing in debt can be a great alternative for more immediate, conservative and consistent cash flow. These vehicles generate anywhere from 8% to 10%, or even higher. In addition to Real Estate debt or equity, there are still other ways to invest in lending vehicles with even higher returns, as high as 20%.
