The benefit of real estate investment is that it produces relatively consistent total returns that are a hybrid of income and capital growth. Investing in income-generating real estate can be a great way to increase an individual/company net worth. Income generating real estate consists mainly of offices, retail, industrial and leased residential properties.
Over the last few years, Infrastructure development is an area of the capital markets that has undergone unprecedented growth. Infrastructure development activity is focused on developing assets such as roads, water supply, power grids and telecommunications. Though this sector is currently experiencing a slow down, it is still considered a potential growth segment.
