Real estate investment involves the purchase, ownership, management, rental and/or sale of real estate for profit. Improvement of realty property as part of a real estate investment strategy is generally considered to be a sub-specialty of real estate investing called real estate development.

It is also capital intensive (although capital may be gained through mortgage leverage) and is highly cash flow dependent.
