Why Real Estate?
Lower Volatility
- •Housing is far more stable than stocks.
- •Over the last 50 years, housing dropped only 7 times (average -4.3%) compared to stocks dropping 10 times (average -14.2%)
Strong Total Returns
- •Historically housing delivers 3-5+% price appreciation plus 5-10% rental income, generating impressive 8% to 15+% total returns annually.
Tax Benefits
- •Defer capital gains using 1031 Exchange.
- •Deduct 20% of rental income using QBI.
- •Reduce taxes using Depreciation.
Leverage
Unique to real estate: A 25% down payment provides 4x leverage. This means 3% price growth becomes a 12% return on your investment—before rental income.
Diversification
De-risk your investments as housing markets move independently from stocks, providing protection during market downturns.
The best rental properties are rarely local

Why Butterflo, not Zillow/Redfin?
Zillow/Redfin are great for finding a home to live in
but don't help you find profitable rental properties.
- Butterflo lets you filter by financials too
- e.g. min cap rate, price growth, roi, ..
- not just beds/baths/area and price like Zillow - Butterflo computes location specific expenses
- county level property tax rates, insurance, ..
- not an average value for whole state like Zillow - Butterflo shows the top profitable homes
- as it ranks properties by profitability
- with Zillow, you compute profitability of 100s of properties and then compare. Too much work!
