Most real estate is a collection of rights. These rights may be bundled or separated when buying and selling real estate. Which can substantially change the value of your investments.
This is a part of the industry which many investors overlook. Yet, it can be very impactful. It may become far more important to many investors in this changing market.
Especially for those who are embracing new niches, property types, and areas as they strive to keep up their deal flow and incomes. As well as when dealing with increasingly motivated sellers who need to move fast.
Real Estate Rights
There are many types of rights. Newer investors often take for granted that all of these rights are bundled together and are included in the purchase when they are buying property. That’s not always the case.
Some rights may be specifically excluded, or no longer owned by the seller. In other cases, just the rights can be bought, sold and leased.
By being alert to these factors, you may be able to strike deals where others fail to see the true value. Or be able to extract more value than just from the land and existing improvements. At a minimum, this awareness can save you enormous headaches and financial losses. You’ve got to know what to look for.
Types Of Rights
Oil and mineral rights can be a big one. In places like Texas, it may be very common for land to be sold separately to the rights to the oil and gas underneath it. Be sure you keep this in mind when looking at comps.
Water rights may be one of the most important. This can apply to water access and ownership rights. There have been notorious cases when waterfront property has been sold, only for new owners to later find out that they don’t own their docks or rights to water frontage.
Access to water under the ground is huge too. Whether it is for drinking or irrigation, rights to use that water, and how much can make a huge difference.
Air rights determine what can be built, and may or may not obstruct views from neighboring properties.
Rights of way and easements dictate access to a property. Either by the owners or others. Easements may make some of the land unusable. Or may be vital to accessing your property, without getting landlocked.
Think about these factors, and how you can work them into your checklists, or use them to create more value and income.

"I was studying on how transactional funding works and you guys had the best and most thorough explanations posted so I could fully understand the details in back to back closing. I'd already started setting everything up but your video confirmed that I'm on the right track."

"....a few months back, I happened upon a video, on your site, regarding the use of transactional funding with Hud properties; and I found myself replaying the video over and over because of the value that I saw in the message...it actually explained the process, step-by-step on how to submit a Hud deal by using transactional funding. Once I completed the video, my initial response was to take immediate action by duplicating what I had learned from the video into real time. So I did some research on properties in a market where I knew I had buyers; and put together a hud deal. I then located a realtor able and willing to submit my bid online and within a couple of days, to my surprise, received a call telling me that I had won – my very 1st Hud bid."
"To you I say, ”KUDOS to Best Transactional Funding and Thank you for providing the education and services to Real Estate Entrepreneurs like me. Please keep up the good work!'"
