  • Profit: the difference between income and expenses of an investment.

  • Asset: the set of assets and rights of a company or person, both what is owned and what is owed.
  • Commission: charged by one of the parties in a negotiation or investment as remuneration for any services.

The stock market

Investing in the financial market is the first option for most people. However, you should keep in mind that if you want to be successful, and not just keep your money, you need dedication and follow-up on the current market.

Business investment

The Real-estate market

The real estate market is one of the best and most demanding options for savers and investors who want to see their capital increase easily and at any type of term. We also have several ways of producing profits, in the same sense that happened with the purchase of assets:
  • Through the rent paid by the tenant, fixed, secure and long-term profitability.
  • Through the capital gain between the purchase and sale. Often you invest in a renovation or refurbishment when you buy that increases the last sale value. For example, if, in addition to the purchase of the premises, we invest an amount in a reform that improves its image and conditioning, the new market price will have increased considerably more than what we have invested in the reform. Thus increasing the capital gain and, therefore, our profit in the operation.
