Real Estate Investment Strategy 2026
Real estate remains one of the safest long-term wealth building assets in India. However, smart strategy is essential to maximize ROI.
Understanding ROI
ROI (Return on Investment) is calculated by combining rental income and capital appreciation.
ROI Formula:

Residential vs Commercial ROI
Commercial properties typically offer higher rental yields (6–9%) compared to residential (2–4%). However, commercial carries higher risk.

A structured investment approach ensures long-term wealth growth.
