But for our business to grow it requires capital/equity injection again and again over period of its life time. Life is energy, same way business is energy, either it is growing or shrinking, for our business to keep growing we have to keep injecting equity/capital but where can one find more capital again and again over period of time. Because we when started, we had put in all we had. Now imagine having an property as your partner when you started and you bought a property worth P 1 Million and three years down the line now the same property is worth may be for example P 1.5 Million and gives extra equity in your balance sheet by P 500,000 which you as a business promoter could not have done. You can use this equity to borrow from a bank or give guarantee against it and fuel growth in your business. Hence property investment is a best silent partner which is growing your balance sheet through its life cycle without any drawings / dividend unlike you when you are a business promoter.† Billionaire Real Estate Tycoon Donald Trump has been quoted saying, “Real Estate is at the core of almost every business and its certainly at the core of the most peopleís wealth.
