A $14 Trillion Passive Income Investment Opportunity Is Hiding in Plain Sight (and It's Easier to Access Than You Think)
Commercial real estate is vital to everyday life. Most of us spend some time each week going to the grocery store, dining in a restaurant, or filling our cars with gas. Those routine activities require physical buildings to provide us with those goods and services. And these buildings are a potential goldmine of passive income hiding in plain sight.
There's an estimated $14 trillion of commercial real estate around the U.S. and Europe suitable for net leases, a common arrangement where a tenant pays rent and other agreed-upon expenses. Those leases provide their landlords with very stable passive income.
What might surprise you is that you don't need to become a landlord to access this passive income. Several real estate investment trusts (REITs) focus on net lease real estate. They enable anyone to sit back and collect a steady stream of passive dividend income for much less work and money than required to buy and manage one of these buildings yourself.
