Real Estate Investment: 5 Fatal Mistakes You Don’t Want To Make 
                     REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT: 5 FATAL 
MISTAKES YOU DON’T WANT TO M
Real estate investment is a strategy and not a sequence of disjointed 
transactions.
Investing in real estate is a trusted port for many. Yet, as with anything, there is 
a good way and a bad way to embark on a real estate adventure. From the 
experiences of professional real estate investors, we draw on five real estate 
investment mistakes that can be catastrophic for a beginning investor.
Buy a house and see what you do with it. Acting first and then thinking is rarely 
a good modus approach. The lack of a solid plan is by far the most common 
mistake made by aspiring real estate investors. However, it is quite simple: 
create a solid plan and find a property that suits your plan—first the strategy, 
then the concrete implementation.
Here, We want to share some of the most common mistakes with you so that 
you can learn from them.
1. BUYING WITH EMOTION
As a real estate investor, you naturally want to give 
someone a nice place to live, to create a home. But 
you are not an investor for nothing, which means 
your real estate investment must also yield money. 
Unfortunately, we still see all too often that people 
buy with emotion, for example, by necessarily 
buying in a certain place because they themselves 
come from there. Because of that, they have a 
good feeling about that place. Even if that place is 
not the right investing place, they still decide to 
purchase there. That is a waste of your investment, 
time and return. A home must be good. It should 
feel clean, complete and pleasant. But in the end, 
you invest in making money with it.
2. NOT GOOD MARKET 
RESEARCH
Before you buy, proper market research is very 
important. Because of this, you research what 
the appraisal prices, purchase prices, rental 
prices and rentability are, among other things. 
This sometimes felt tempting not to hire a 
professional for help to save money. However, 
if you don’t have the good market knowledge 
and not even consulted an expert, you could 
lose the brighter side of buying a profitable 
property. So, make sure you do good market 
research before buying somewhere so that you 
know for sure what you are doing.  
3. OUTBIDDING
 When there are a few houses for sale, and it takes 
more effort to find good property deals (off-market 
deals), people are inclined to pay more to be able to 
buy. But in the case of real estate investment, you 
earn on the purchase price. Because if you buy well, 
you have to invest less from your own money. You 
can use that money that you have leftover to invest 
in another object or to get better financing 
conditions. Or you have built up equity faster that 
you can also withdraw to invest further. Our tip is, 
therefore: before going into a bidding war, be sure 
that this property is going to offer you good ROI. 
Have patience and go the extra mile to find and 
purchase the right property.
4. INVEST TO IMPLEMENT
First-time investors, in particular, are 
not willing to invest to implement. 
That’s a big mistake because when 
they invest in knowledge, they will 
save a lot of issues and a lot of time. 
You don’t have to spend thousands of 
dollars on this. But just start with 
learning the tactics of real estate 
investment. A good real 
estate agent can help you with this.   
5. MONEY IS IMPORTANT
As an investor, you naturally want to earn on your 
investment. So, you want to receive a net cash 
flow every month. But a number of investors are 
going through this. For example, they choose not 
to install a new bathroom because this can 
quickly cost a few thousand dollars, and this is 
deducted from their return. While it is really 
necessary to prevent that there will be no 
leakage. They want to save in the short term, 
which will cost more money in the long term. 
Because if you really do get a leak, you will spend 
more time and money to fix it. So, make sure your 
objects are in order so that the tenant is satisfied 
and you can save money in the long term.
