    Owner Dennis Coyle of

    DC Landscape Design

    LLC based out of

    Pequannock Township donates toPequannock. I grew up In

    Pequannock Township. I have

    multiple clients in Pequannock

    and Pompton Plains. I thought it

    would only be right to give back a

    little to the community that has

    given so much to me. I spent

    many days of my youth at PV

    Park. It is a great lake and I have

    many great memories there. I

    spoke with town officials and

    they gave me the green light todonate a garden and a tree to the

    Park.

    The garden DC Landscape

    installed is directly in front of the

    PV Park sign. The design includes

    some dwarf evergreen

    boxwoods, dwarf foun-

    tain grasses, red knock

    out roses, yellow daylilies, purple saliva, blue

    star juniper and finished

    it off with some black

    dye mulch which really

    makes the flowers and

    plants stand out. The

    tree I decided to donate

    was a Purple Leaf

    Thunder Cloud Plum. It

    is one of my favorite

    trees. They have small

    pink flowers in springand then, throughout

    the summer until fall,

    the foliage of the plant offers a

    beautiful burgundy color. The

    tree does not get huge and does

    not make a mess in fall. There are

    only a handful of trees that have

    nice burgundy foliage throughout

    the spring, summer and fall

    months and this is one of them.

    All in all, its a pretty mainte-

    nance free tree.

    Do you think its a

    requirement to be-come a millionaire

    in your lifetime? Is it a nice

    thought, perhaps for some-

    one else, or not even a

    thought at all? Were you

    alive when the average house

    in our North Jersey area cost

    around $80,000 in 1978,

    when $1,000,000.00 was

    really a cool million? And

    now, what is a cool million

    dollars worth? Does it still goas far; spend the same or feel

    as good when compared to

    the late 70s considering

    nominal bank CD rates were

    over 10% and for a brief peri-

    od as high as 18%? A

    $1,000,000 CD would gener-

    ate $180,000 in annual inter-

    est, in other words, you could

    live on that. Today, the same

    $1,000,000 CD from the

    same bank pays .35% or$3,500 in annual interest and

    that is before we calculate

    todays inflated cost of goods

    and services when compared

    to the 1970s.

    Please imagine a slice of

    pizza or my newest measure

    of inflation, a bagel. When I

    was 7 years of age, a slice of

    pizza cost a quarter and a

    bagel cost a dime. This week

    I purchased a dozen bagels for$12 and two slices of pizza

    cost more than $4.00! My

    children have asked me why

    we even use change anymore

    since basically nothing costs

    less than a dollar. You know,

    theyre right and inflation

    isnt slowing down stopping

    or going away, quite the con-

    trary, in this columnists

    opinion, inflation is poised to

    skyrocket! What I am sayingis that accumulating a $1

    plus million retirement port-

    folio is no longer a nice

    thought or optional, its adownright mandatory neces-

    sity - Period!

    Last month one of my

    columns was entitled, Is a

    College Education Worth

    the Cost? Is it worth losing

    at least 4 years of momentum

    in the workforce building

    your career while accumulat-

    ing a 6 figure school loan

    debt, not to mention a guar-

    antee of a job upon gradua-

    tion? I wrote, Its a Dogs

    Life for Me, comparing the

    wonderful life my dog leads

    to the perfect retirement life.

    Another column was titledWants vs. Needs the

    American Struggle, where

    no one actually needs a new

    Bentley motorcar. Today, I

    am writing about financial

    preparedness, that without

    exception must be planned

    for and executed or suffer a

    retirement of sacrifice, disap-

    pointment or worse, no

    retirement at all. There was

    once a joke that asked, Howdo you spell retirement? The

    answer was D.E.A.T.H.

    Unfortunately, for some peo-

    ple born after 1985 thisjoke will more than likely

    be their reality. The rules of

    the money game including

    wealth accumulation, inter-

    generational wealth transfer

    and debt avoidance must be

    mastered and plans for a

    joint-life guaranteed retire-

    ment income must be in

    place so the surviving spouse

    will not run out of money

    before running out of life.

    Lets see what the

    future holds is a phrase tan-

    tamount to complacency and

    denial. We must be proac-

    tive, decisive, actionaryand reactionary to world

    events including that of our

    own government that shape

    our individual and familys

    financial future. The finan-

    cial section of the newspaper

    can no longer be used to line

    the bird cage or as the dogs

    wee wee pad, until after it is

    read and digested by all who

    live under the family roof.

    Tough economic times willbe upon us again and the fed-

    eral government lacks the

    financial might and world

    respect to save us this time.We have come to the rescue

    of other failing nations

    throughout history and how

    many of those nations would

    or could come to the aid of

    the United States of

    America? Bottom line is it

    really doesnt matter, because

    the problem of our national

    debt and total federal finan-

    cial obligations due to con-

    tinued congressional compla-

    cency, have gotten too far

    out of control where no

    nation on earth possesses the

    financial might to render any

    aid or bailout.Its truly out of control

    with no leadership from any

    branch in power to overcome

    this adversity and travesty. I

    am concerned for the chil-

    dren of today as the govern-

    ment has forsaken them by

    refusing to acknowledge and

    correct decades of reckless

    spending without regard to

    balancing expenses with rev-

    enue. The government can-not continue to raise taxes

    on the 50% of Americans

    that pay tax while increasing

    those that are dependent ongovernment provided

    income, health care and

    housing benefits. How many

    more examples do we need?

    History is littered full of

    failed governments, political

    experiments run amok and

    Robin Hood economic les-

    sons for the United States

    government to behave the

    way it has, increasing the

    debt ceiling every budgetyear to this incomprehensi-

    ble level. How, as a family

    unit, can you react and pro-

    tect yourself from our failed

    domestic economic prob-

    lems? Ill tell you: work more,

    earn more, save more, invest

    more and spend less, all the

    things your government

    refuses to do. Living above

    ones means, keeping up with

    the Joness, entitlementvacations and new cars are

    out! Frugality, Budgeting and

    Necessities only, are in! The

    penalty for non-compliance

    will be severe and what are

    the consequences if I am

    wrong about future inflation?

    Youll have a fortune more

    money invested a rosy future

    and leave a major legacy!

    But, if Im right, and you are

    prepared, youll be able toprosper through your very

    last day with food on the

    table, a roof over your head

    and cash to pay for health

    care. This is too serious a

    subject to put-off or poo poo.

    The Federal Reserve has

    already indicated interest

    rates will rise in the latter

    half of 2015 and with that

    the resurgence of inflation.

    Remember the bagel andpizza prices of your childhood

    vs today and just think about

    them for a moment. Now,

    project what they will cost in

    ten years, in twenty and if

    you will be able to pick upthe tab when the kids and

    grandkids come over. My

    advice, get together with a

    competent financial advisor

    today to design a tax-advan-

    taged savings/investment and

    income producing program

    to protect and provide for

    your future financial require-

    ments ASAP!

    Afather who is afraid to

    go the dentist is likely

    to pass on his fear to

    his children, according to

    researchers at Rey Juan

    Carolos University in Madrid,

    Spain. The International

    Journal of Pediatric Dentistry

    published a study where 183

    Madrid children from 7-15

    years old, as well as their par-

    ents, rated the level of fear todentistry in an anonymous

    questionnaire.

    The data showed that

    mothers reported the highest

    levels of dental fear and the

    researchers concluded that the

    greater dental fear is for one

    family member, the greater it

    would be for the other family

    members. They also concluded

    that the fathers feelings about

    going to the dentist play a hugerole in whether a mothers fear

    of the dentist will be passed to

    their children.

    Children seem to pay

    attention to the emotional

    reactions of their fathers, if

    going to the dentist will be

    stressful, said Professor

    America Lara-Sacido.

    The results point to a

    need for dentists to reducefathers dental fears by giving

    them accurate information on

    dentistry, teaching simple

    relaxation techniques, or

    addressing negative thoughts

    to prevent passing dental fears

    on to their children. The workwith the parents is key and

    teaches them to be relaxed as a

    way of directly influencing

    their kids.

    What would summer

    be without days

    spent frolicking at

    the beach or afternoons spent

    splashing in the pool? Fun in

    the water makes hot days more

    enjoyable and bearable, and

    few summertime activities do

    not involve water play in oneaspect or another.

    Although time spent in

    the water can be refreshing and

    entertaining, water does pres-

    ent certain hazards, particular-

    ly for those who do not know

    how to swim. Learning to

    swim, especially at a young age,

    is advisable and a great way to

    remain safe around the water.

    The World Health

    Organization says drowning is

    the third leading cause of unin-

    tentional injury death across

    the globe, accounting for 7 per-

    cent of all injury-related

    deaths. Children, males and

    individuals with increased

    access to water are most at risk

    of drowning. In general, chil-

    dren under five years of age

    have the highest drowning

    mortality rates in the world,

    though adult males in Canada

    and New Zealand drown at

    higher rates than children.

    According to the

    American Academy of

    Pediatrics, parents should con-

    sider swimming lessons for

    most children between the

    ages of one and four. New

    research has revealed that

    swimming instruction for chil-

    dren between the ages of one

    and four may decrease drown-

    ing risk. However, parents

    should be advised that swim-

    ming lessons do not remove all

    risk. Children still need con-

    stant supervision when in and

    around water. Additionally,

    learning CPR can be a life-sav-

    ing measure.

    When enrolling children

    in swim lessons, parents should

    look for safety-certified

    instructors who have first aid

    and resuscitation training and

    certification. Many programs

    offered are sponsored by the

    American Red Cross or the

    YMCA. Private swim clubs

    may have their own instruc-

    tors.

    Children between the

    ages of one and three typically

    do not have the motor coordi-

    nation to swim effectively.

    These children can benefit

    from swim lessons that empha-

    size getting used to the water,

    safety and learning some swim-

    ming readiness skills.

    Instruction may involve teach-

    ing children how to move their

    legs and arms and strengthen

    muscles used for swimming.

    Children between the ages of

    four and five may be more

    developmentally ready for

    swimming. Such youngsters

    may move from water-safety

    lessons to actual swimming

    with or without support. A

    study titled Childrens readi-

    ness for learning front crawl

    swimming published in The

    Australian Journal of Science

    and Medicine in Sport showed

    that whether kids started les-

    sons at two, three or four years

    of age, they learned to swim

    well at approximately the

    same mean age of five and

    a half years.

    In addition to swim-

    ming lessons, parents and

    other adults can ensure

    water safety by taking the

    following precautionary

    measures:

    Children should never be

    left unattended in the

    water. It takes mere inches

    of water for a youngster to

    drown.

    In the pool or another body

    of water, caregivers should be

    within touching distance of

    young swimmers to provide

    help if needed, even if the

    child is wearing a floatation

    device.

    Keep rescue equipment by

    the pool.

    Remove toys from the pool

    when its not in use. These

    toys can attract children who

    will go in after them.

    A fence around the perime-

    ter of the yard may be manda-

    tory, but a fence around the

    pool itself is another safety bar-

    rier to consider. The fence

    should feature a self-latching

    gate.

    Even adults should be

    watched while swimming. It is

    always a safe idea to swim with

    a buddy, so that the other per-

    son can get help if something

    goes wrong.

    So, be safe this summer.

    Many college stu-

    dents recognize the

    value of intern-

    ships. Internships can help

    college students start building

    their resumes before they

    even earn their degrees, and

    those experiences can give

    them an edge in a competi-

    tive postgraduate job market.

    Landing internships

    gives students some firsthand

    experience within a given

    profession, and that exposure

    can help them decide if a pro-

    jected career path is right for

    them or if its good to go back

    to the drawing board. The

    following are a few tips to

    help college students land an

    internship and make the

    most of the opportunity.

    Dont hesitate. Though

    many internships are tailored

    to students with a year or two

    of college under their belt,

    that doesnt mean freshman

    cant begin to explore poten-

    tial opportunities. Even if you

    dont intend to get an intern-

    ship in the coming school

    year or during summer break,

    you can begin to explore

    potential opportunities that

    might interest you when the

    time to start seeking intern-

    ships does arrive. Looking

    early may yield valuable

    information, such as courses

    that would improve your

    chances of landing an intern-

    ship, which your fellow stu-

    dents who hesitate or pro-

    crastinate wont have.

    Speak with the career

    placement specialists at your

    school. Career placement

    departments at colleges and

    universities are an increasing-

    ly valuable resource for

    todays college students,

    many of whom will graduate

    and face an uncertain and

    crowded job market. But

    career placement depart-

    ments are not just a resource

    for grads. Such departments

    can be valuable tools for cur-

    rent students interested in

    landing internships. If you

    dont know where to begin

    your internship search or sim-

    ply want to see if any oppor-

    tunities have opened up,

    speak with representatives at

    the career placement depart-

    ment at your school. Look

    the part on such visits, dress-

    ing nicely and bringing a

    Summer and the warm

    weather are just about

    here. Its time to get off

    our couches and venture into

    the great outdoors. These

    plans will often include your

    furry, four-legged friends.

    However, dogs and cats can

    suffer from hot weather prob-

    lems similar to those of the

    human- like enduring the

    heat, bugs and allergies. As it

    gets hotter, it is important to

    take some simple precautions

    to keep our pets healthy and

    safe from the hazards that

    accompany summer.

    Heat stroke is a very seri-

    ous and very common occur-

    rence during the summer

    months and results when your

    pets body temperature rises

    above the normal range. Heat

    stroke can be a life-threaten-

    ing disease, can afflict dogs or

    cats quite rapidly and be diffi-

    cult to treat. A little preven-

    tion can go a long way.

    Certain pets may be predis-

    posed to this condition such

    as brachycephalic breeds (i.e.

    pushed in nose) like a Bulldog

    or Persian cat, overweight

    pets, very young and very old

    pets or ill pets. Heat strokes

    occur a lot in late spring and

    early summer because our pets

    are out of shape and are not

    yet acclimated to the hot

    weather. Therefore, introduce

    pets to exercise slowly. Also,

    try to exercise pets in the

    morning or evening when

    temperatures are lower. Be

    sure to provide your pet with

    plenty of breaks for water and

    time to cool down in the

    shade.

    There are many ways to

    avoid heat stroke. The most

    known adage is to never leave

    a pet in the car on warm days.

    Even with the windows open,

    temperatures in a car can rise

    to deadly levels within min-

    utes. Dogs and cats dont

    sweat the same way we do.

    They thermo-regulate mostly

    by panting and can sweat

    minimally through the bot-

    tom of their feet. One of the

    easiest preventative measures

    is to make sure that pets have

    free access to water and shade

    when kept outside.

    Early signs of heat stroke

    may include rapid panting,

    heavy breathing, excessive

    salivation, increased body

    temperature (i.e. above 100-

    102 degrees F), depression,

    weakness, and vomiting. If

    you suspect that heat stroke is

    taking place, seek immediate

    veterinary attention. In the

    meantime, you should remove

    the animal from the hot area

    and start lowering your pets

    body temperature. This

    shouldnt be done too quickly,

    which can also be dangerous.

    Therefore only use cool water,

    NO ice. An easy remedy is to

    place cool water soaked T-

    shirt on your pet and take

    them right to your veterinari-

    an. Aside from heat stroke,

    more outdoor activities mean

    the risk of outdoor traumas

    and increased accidents. Some

    tips include: not leaving pets

    unsupervised around a pool,

    make sure all pets wear flota-

    tion devices on boats, and try

    not to let your dog drink pool

    water, which contains chemi-

    cals that could cause stomach

    upset.

    Cats that are allowed

    outdoors also venture out

    more in the summer. Be on

    the lookout for abscesses and

    other fighting injuries. Cats

    that are neutered or spayed

    may be at a lower risk of such

    injuries as they are unlikely to

    be involved in mating-

    induced aggression. The best

    way to avoid these

    injuries is to keep your cat

    indoors.

    The warmer months

    also means more bugs.

    Fleas are a common pest that

    live off the blood of their

    hosts and can cause itching, or

    worse, an allergic reaction

    called flea-bite dermatitis.

    Fleas can also be carriers for

    an intestinal parasite called

    tapeworms. Mosquitoes are

    another pest that may carry

    heartworms, which can be life

    threatening to your dog and

    cat. More trips to the dog park

    can also increase exposure to

    infected soil and intestinal

    parasites, some of which are

    transmissible to people

    (zoonotic). In North Jersey,

    we cant forget about ticks

    that can carry a variety of dis-

    eases, most notably Lyme dis-

    ease. Preventatives for fleas,

    ticks, heartworms and intes-

    tinal parasites are available

    from your veterinarian and

    should be given year-round.

    The benefits of prevention far

    outweigh the nuisance and

    health hazards for your pet

    and to us as well.

    Another summer risk for

    cats that live in apartment

    buildings or in homes with a

    second floor is high-rise syn-

    drome. This is the unfortunate

    scenario of us wanting to open

    windows in the nice weather

    and cats falling out of them.

    Cats dont deliberately jump

    out of windows but can fall if

    screens arent properly secured

    or if they are focused on an

    insect or bird and become dis-

    tracted. Cats can be seriously

    Fathers Day has been

    celebrated in one form

    or another since the

    beginning of the nineteenth

    century. Perhaps the most

    driving force behind Fathers

    Day was Senora Dodd, who

    thought of the idea of a day

    to honor fathers while listen-

    ing to a Mothers Day ser-

    mon in 1909. Having been

    raised by her father, Dodd

    wanted to honor the sacri-

    fices that fathers make.

    Father s

    Day was not formally consid-

    ered a holiday until 1972,

    when a Congressional Act

    officially designated the third

    Sunday in June Fathers Day.

    Families celebrate

    Fathers Day in many ways.

    This year

    Fathers Day falls on Sunday,

    June 15. Dads who are histo -

    ry buffs may want to cele-

    brate this years holiday by

    reminiscing about the

    notable events that have

    occurred on June 15 through

    the years. Here are just some

    of the many historical

    events that took place on

    June 15.

    1752: Ben Franklin per-

    forms his famous kite-flying

    experiment to test the elec-

    trical power of lightning.

    1775: George Washington

    is appointed Commander in

    Chief of the American Army.

    1878: The first attempt at a

    motion picture takes place.

    Twelve cameras, each taking

    one picture, focus on horses

    hooves to see if they will

    leave the ground.

    1887: The New York Giants

    baseball team beats the

    Philadelphia Phillies 29 -1.

    1916: The Boy Scouts of

    America receives its congres-

    sional charter.

    1918: An inch of snow falls

    in northern Pennsylvania.

    1924: Native Americans

    are proclaimed U.S. citizens.

    1934: The Great Smoky

    Mountains National Park is

    dedicated.

    1940: France surrenders to

    German forces as Nazi troops

    occupy the city of Paris.

    1968: John Lennon and

    Yoko Ono plant an acorn at

    Coventry Cathedral.

    1977: General elections are

    held in Spain for the first

    time since 1936.

    1985: The Russian space

    probe Vega 2 lands on Venus.

    2002: An asteroid misses

    hitting Earth by 75,000

    miles.

    2003: The San Antonio

    Spurs defeat the New Jersey

    Nets to win the NBA

    Championship.

    Dracula makes an

    appearance at The

    Rhino Theatre in

    June. This stage adaptation is

    closely based on the original,

    presenting the frightening

    story that made this a horror

    classic. The story focuses on

    the mysterious Count Dracula

    who has gone to England

    where he lives on a large

    estate next to an insane asy-

    lum run by the incredibly

    naive Dr. Seward. The others

    that make up the cast of this

    thriller include Professor Van

    Helsing, Renfield, the beauti-

    ful Lucy Westenra and

    Charles. The plot develops

    with all the excitement of the

    original and then, in the end,

    the audience is given the jolt

    of a startling double twist.

    Friday and Saturday shows are

    at 8pm and Sundays shows are

    at 2pm. Ticket price is $25 for

    Adults and $23.50 for seniors.

    Call for tickets at 973-248-

    9491. Rhino Theatre is located

    at 247 Wanaque Ave., Pompton

    Lakes. Visit their website at

    Its all about remembering

    Dads favorites on Fathers

    Day. While everyone

    relaxes and enjoys the serenity

    of the backyard, these ribs will

    be slowly cooking to mouth-

    watering perfection.

    Orange-Ginger Baby Back

    Ribs

    Ingredients:

    5 pounds baby back ribs

    Sauce:

    1 cup ketchup

    cup hoisin sauce

    4 tab soy sauce

    2 tab grainy mustard

    3 tab honey

    2 tab orange juice

    2 tab Asian chili sauce

    1 tab Worcestershire sauce

    4 cloves garlic, minced

    1 tab ginger

    Grated zest of an orange

    Salt and pepper

    Directions:

    Preheat the grill to medi-

    um and turn down to low.

    Prepare ribs for grilling by

    removing the membrane from

    the underside of the ribs.

    Prepare several foil envelopes

    and place 2 strips of ribs into

    each envelope, with 1/4 cup of

    water and seal tightly. Cook

    for 2 to 2 hours on low

    (300F) with the lid closed.

    Check the thermometer on

    the front of the grill lid fre-

    quently and adjust the cook-

    ing temperature accordingly.

    This may require turning one

    or two burners off and cooking

    indirectly.

    To prepare the sauce:

    Combine all ingredients in a

    saucepan and set aside until

    the ribs are ready to remove

    from the foil. Gently heat the

    sauce on the side burner for 10

    to 15 minutes before using.

    Carefully remove the ribs

    from the foil and place on

    grids. Baste generously with

    sauce, and grill for 10 minutes

    per side, leaving the lid open,

    turning several times, and

    basting with sauce after each

    turn.

    Heat remaining sauce to

    a boil and then allow it to sim-

    mer for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve

    on the side as a dipping sauce.

    Fertilizing a lawn is aspringtime tradition for

    many homeowners.

    Winter can take its toll on a

    lawn, but fertilizer can go a

    long way toward helping a lawn

    recover from harsh weather.

    While lawn-and-garden enthu-

    siasts might know the ins and

    outs of fertilizing a lawn,

    novices might need a little help

    as they look to restore their

    lawns.Find out what your lawn

    needs. Even novice green

    thumbs likely know that over

    fertilization can harm a lawn,

    and thats a big reason many

    homeowners approach fertiliz-

    ing their lawn with some trepi-

    dation. A lush lawn adds to the

    curb appeal of a home, while a

    lawn thats patchy or appears to

    be poorly taken care of can

    lower property value. Beforefertilizing a lawn, homeowners

    should determine the needs of

    their lawns. A soil test can

    determine if the lawn has any

    nutrient deficiencies.

    Dont overdo it with nitrogen.

    Fertilizing with too much nitro-

    gen is a common mistake, as

    too much nitrogen can be

    harmful, decreasing root

    growth and increasing a lawns

    susceptibility to disease. Aslow-release fertilizer may be an

    option, as such fertilizers breakdown nutrients over a longer

    period of time, which also

    allows homeowners to extend

    On the heels of a reces-

    sion that saw homevalues drop, many

    would-be investors have shied

    away from buying investment

    properties. But real estate has

    historically remained a sound

    investment, boasting a long-

    term appreciation rate that

    makes it a worthwhile invest-

    ment for those who can with-

    stand temporary setbacks in

    housing prices and hold on totheir properties over the long

    haul.

    But investors are often

    nervous as they look for their

    first properties. Uncertainty

    about housing prices aside,

    investing in real estate is also

    risky, and first-time investors

    need to be comfortable with

    such risk in order to make the

    most of their investments.The following are a few things

    potential real estate investors

    should consider as they decide

    if investing in real estate is

    right for them.

    Personal ability

    Real estate investors typ-

    ically have tenants, and those

    tenants inevitably have needs.

    Investors who have experi-

    ence as contractors may notfind it difficult to renovate a

    property and make it more

    attractive to tenants, nor are

    they likely to be inconve-

    nienced when minor issues on

    the property need to be

    addressed. Investors with no

    such experience will need to

    hire contractors to do the

    work for them, cutting into

    potential profits down theroad. In addition, investors

    who dont have the ability

    and/or the time to address

    minor issues like a clogged

    drain or a drafty window on

    their own will need to hire a

    property management firm to

    tend to such needs. Such firms

    are effective, but also expen-

    sive, further cutting into your

    profits.Even those investors

    with contracting experience

    may have little or no knowl-

    edge of how the leasing

    process works, forcing them to

    rely on a real estate firm to

    write up leases and ensure all

    leases stay current. This, too,

    resume. Doing so

    might just separateyou from your fellow

    students, and that

    can only help as you

    begin your search for

    an internship.

    Ask around

    among friends and

    family members.

    Sometimes you need

    a little help to land a

    good internship, so

    dont be afraid to askyour friends and fam-

    ily members if theyre

    aware of any opportu-

    nities. Adult relatives

    might be aware of

    internship opportunities at

    their companies before the

    general public, and theres no

    shame in seeking help as you

    try to take the first step

    toward a rewarding career. In

    addition to friends and familymembers, inquire about your

    college or universitys alumni

    network. Many alumni look

    to hire students from their

    universities for internships or

    even entry-level positions, so

    make the most of this poten-

    tially valuable resource.

    can cut into an investors prof-

    its. Investors who dont bringany relevant expertise to the

    table can still make a profit

    from their real estate invest-

    ments, but those profits likely

    wont be as significant when

    outside companies must be

    hired to ensure the property is

    in good shape and all neces-

    sary documents are in order

    and up-to-date.

    Time

    Real estate is often atime-consuming investment.

    Tenants pay good money to

    live in attractive rental prop-

    erties, and those tenants will

    have a host of needs that must

    be met. Investors must be sure

    they have the time to address

    their tenants concerns, espe-

    cially investors with no plans

    to hire property management

    firms. Potential investors who

    already have full plates atwork and at home may not be

    able to devote the time neces-

    sary to make the most of their

    real estate investments, andtherefore might be better off

    finding another way to invest

    their money.

    Time also must be con-

    sidered when considering

    profits. Real estate is not the

    type of investment that turns

    a profit overnight. Even

    investors who are looking to

    invest in an up-and-coming

    neighborhood must be pre-

    pared to hold onto their prop-erties for at least a few years, if

    not much longer, to maximize

    their investments. Though

    real estate is a sound invest-

    ment, it is not a get rich quick

    type of investment, so

    investors looking to make a

    quick buck should consider

    alternatives before buying

    investment properties.

    Size

    First-time real estateinvestors might be wise to

    choose a smaller property for

    their initial investment.

    Larger properties can be over-whelming to manage, and

    investors often rely on proper-

    ty management firms to tend

    to these properties. Such firms

    charge more to manage bigger

    properties, which can eat into

    investors finances. Veteran

    investors can handle such

    overhead costs, but first-

    timers might find themselves

    caught off guard upon realiz-

    ing the gravity of their finan-cial commitment. A good rule

    of thumb for first-time

    investors is to stick to smaller

    properties, only moving on to

    larger buildings once they are

    fully comfortable with all that

    comes with investing in real

    estate.

    Costs

    The cost of a real estate

    investment goes beyond the

    purchase price of the home. Inaddition to the mortgage on

    the property, investors must

    pay the taxes and insurance

    on the property, as well as anycosts associated with main-

    taining and managing the

    property. Certain tax breaks

    are available to real estate

    investors depending on where

    they live. For example, in the

    United States, taxes on the

    profits when a property is sold

    may be deferred if those prof-

    its are immediately rolled into

    another property (such a

    deferment is only available tothose investors who arrange

    this exchange prior to selling

    the initial property). Potential

    investors need to consider all

    of these costs, and might want

    to hire a real estate lawyer to

    help them make the most of

    their investments and any

    profits they yield. But even

    hiring an attorney is an addi-

    tional cost investors must

    consider before investing.
