During the month of March, we celebrate all of the green starting to show through the winter frost—not just on St. Patrick’s Day. From the grass and the leaves to the dollar bills in your pocket, we celebrate the value of new life and investing in it.

Kicking it off with Mardi Gras, or Shrove Tuesday, many prepare for the season of Lent. The month of March teaches us about the importance of preparation and the value of investing in what can make us better off.

With the ground thawing and a season of humility upon us, it’s the perfect time to start investing in real estate or advance your methods accordingly.  Rather than looking to four-leaf clovers, why not try and make your own luck through your investing?

If you’re not quite convinced yet, here is everything you should know:

Seeing Green

This may seem self-explanatory, but cash flow is a huge reason to invest in real estate right now. Given the real estate boom in both the United States and Canadian markets this year, the heightened work-from-home culture in our society and other external factors, people are reevaluating where they want to live. Because of this, there is a hike in seller prices and more individuals who have already invested in real estate are seeing profit on their real estate properties.

After mortgage fees and other expenses, real estate investors will see an increase in cash now that there is a higher demand for houses, which will result in a higher yield of profit from the investment.

Show Your Appreciation

Whether you are a greenhorn or a seasoned veteran in the real estate game, one fact that may or may not be common knowledge is that real estate appreciates in value over time. As an investor, putting money and time into a house now will allow it to accumulate value over the amount of time you own it, so that in markets during years with a boom, such as this year, you will be able to reap the benefits.

What Are You Waiting For?

With the market primed for sellers and home values skyrocketing, the market is in the favor of real estate investors for both the United States and Canada, since both countries’ markets are seeing substantial increases. Do not worry, we will not have to pinch you (whether you have St. Patrick’s Day Green on or not), because while investing in real estate seems like a dream, it is reality that you can jump into as soon as possible.
