These loans let you buy property with no money down and usually cover both the construction and acquisition expenses. These loans are not cheap, but they can provide quick access to funds. You can close your loan in just days and start working on the property.
House hacking
You can house hack if you don’t have enough cash to purchase property. This type of strategy lets you purchase a home with little to no down payment, and then use your down payment savings to pay other expenses. This method is great for first-time buyers and doesn't require that you build equity.

You can also enjoy passive income as well as dividends. You can start investing with as little at $100 by choosing the right REIT. You can also set up automatic investing and dollar-cost averaging.
Crowdfunding
Crowdfunding can be a good option if you don’t have enough money to invest in real estate. Real estate crowdfunding platforms allow investors to pool their money to make investments. One type of investment is real estate investment trusts. These trusts own multiple income-generating properties. These investments are a more straightforward way to build wealth with a smaller amount of money than many other investment methods. REITs can be either publicly traded or privately traded.
