Get Help Maximizing the Positive Impact of Real Estate in Your Portfolio

Real estate is an important aspect of many investment portfolios in Phoenix – and not just as a source of supplemental or retirement income. Many retirement savers and investors in Phoenix own their own home, a second home or rental properties in Arizona or elsewhere in the country. This tangible asset class possesses a host of attractive attributes that make it a popular choice for all types of investors.


From income generation and tax advantages to inflation protection and historically reliable appreciation, real estate investing fits well into all types of portfolios.



Despite all the potential benefits of real estate investment, property does present its own set of challenges. Like all investments, it should be approached strategically and with thoughtful planning. The financial advisors at Fullerton Financial Planning have extensive experience with real estate investments and are committed to helping clients make informed decisions that align with their financial goals and risk preferences.

Why Investing in Real Estate Is Such a Popular Option for Phoenix Retirement Savers

Purchasing, owning, managing, renting and/or selling real estate for a profit has been a popular investment strategy for as long as humans have been investing. Investigating and purposely purchasing properties to achieve your investment goals, whether that’s generating steady cash flow, asset appreciation, diversification or qualifying for tax benefits, may have a powerfully positive impact on your portfolio.

How Fullerton Financial Planning Can Help With Your Real Estate Investments

We can help Phoenix real estate investors at any point in their investment journey, including managing your existing real estate investments, identifying properties that will be a good fit for your portfolio, market analysis, modeling, due diligence and long-term strategy planning. 

Identifying Investment Objectives

If you’re interested in adding real estate to your portfolio but aren’t sure where to start, Fullerton Financial Planning can assist. Our advisors can help you clearly define your investment objectives, whether that’s long-term capital appreciation, immediate cash flow via rental income or both. Your investment goals can help us identify property investment options that may fit your portfolio.

Local Market Analysis

Location and real estate market conditions are often the most important factors that will influence the performance of your real estate investment. We can help not only with local analysis but also with more granular considerations like neighborhood analysis, demographic shifts, future development plans, local demand and supply dynamics.

Property Selection

Your property investment decisions should be influenced by your long-term goals and what you want real estate to do for your portfolio. Residential, commercial, retail, industrial and multi-family can all be viable real estate investments, but it’s important to choose the properties that are the best fit for your available capital, risk tolerance and overall investment plan.

Financial Analysis

Some of the key benefits of working with a financial advisor are the detailed projections, models and risk assessments they can provide. Our team can help you understand things like projected rental yields, long-term maintenance, tax and management expenses and property appreciation potential. We can help you understand the viability of different types of real estate investments, estimate cash flow and forecast ROI based on market projections.

Identifying Workable Alternatives to Real Property

Buying property isn’t necessarily the only way to invest in real estate. There may be alternative real estate investment strategies that better fit your current portfolio, available capital, goals or risk tolerance. Examples include REITs, DSTs, mortgage investments and other related strategies. Effectively investing in market alternatives to property ownership requires a thorough understanding of things like the impact of current and future interest rates, loan terms and leverage.

Due Diligence on Investment Properties 

What looks like a wise real estate purchase on paper can turn into a headache or even lead to long-term losses without proper due diligence. Our team can perform thorough deep dives into every aspect of a property, from assistance with inspections and title verification to zoning laws and environmental issues. We can help ensure that all important issues or potential problems are uncovered prior to your investment.

Ongoing Real Estate Management

There’s more to managing real estate investments than simply holding it or cashing rent checks from tenants. Active management combined with strategic property improvements can enhance appreciation and maximize cash flow. Optimizing rental strategies, repositioning the asset and property renovations are all potential avenues our financial advisors can explore to enhance the value of property for Phoenix real estate investors.
