Real Estate Real estate is an important part of the small business economy:
- Landlords purchase and manage commercial and residential properties, often beginning with one property
- Businesses lease, purchase or build space for their operations
- Investors hope to profit from the real estate market through financial instruments such as real estate investment trusts (REITS)
Real estate is also an important part of a personal financial plan. After all, consumers rent apartments, and buy and sell condos, coops and houses in New York City.
