i was a stock market investor long ago and due to some loss during trading i had to quit the mode of investment. now after the end of a slide down in the financial graph my current status is provoking me to invest in mutual funds. i am looking at real estate funds. i have little idea about mutual funds and very less idea about real estate ones. can anyone provide a little valuable information on such funds?Asked 145 day(s) back
Mutual funds are not very difficult to understand and if you know something about mutual funds then understanding real estate funds become much easy. These funds create a pool of money where investors invest their money. The money from the pool is used to make investments in companies of builders and land developers and even companies that finance for housing. The investments made are in the form of units and the returns from the investments are provided accordingly. To my knowledge as of now these funds in India are available to individuals with high income.
Many think that finance related topics are hard to understand but the fact is that they are not a dry topic, to get confused. They seem to be easier if we understand the concept first. Real estate fund actually means a kind of mutual fund which is invested in real estate business with the aim of creating an income as well as capital gains for their company share holders.
