Risks of Investing in Real Estate

Private real estate investments are illiquid and susceptible to economic slowdowns or recessions and industry cycles, which could lead to financial losses and a decrease in revenues, net income and assets. Lack of liquidity in the private real estate market makes valuing underlying assets difficult. Appraisal values may vary substantially from a price at which an investment in real estate may actually be sold.
