Rental properties are another popular option, providing a steady stream of income through monthly rent payments. Real estate appreciation involves buying properties in high-demand areas that are likely to increase in value over time. Additionally, investors can generate income through real estate investment trusts (REITs), which pool money from multiple investors to purchase income-generating properties.
