What Is Equity Investment?

If you’re just thinking about becoming an investor, you may have heard the term, “Equity Investment.” So, what is equity investment? Well, simply put, it’s the share of cash that you put into an investment.

If a company that you put money into has a profit, you can earn money on your investment through a dividend, right? This lets some of the company’s profits get divided by shareholders. In trading, equity means your share of stock.

In real estate, you could have an equity investment in a limited partnership or limited liability company. Also, real estate investment opportunities are often found in pools of real estate properties owned through real estate investment trusts (REITs). Also, crowdfunding in real estate accounts for $2.5 billion of the commercial real estate market

Similar to with shares of a stock, in real estate, equity investment returns are based on a share of the net profits. If you invest in equity in a real estate deal, you invest in the real property’s return potential, usually based on the rental income it ends up generating.
