How Real Estate Can Help You Build Generational Wealth By: Jemima Fenteng -Twum

What Is Generational Wealth? Generational wealth refers to assets-like money, property, or investments-that are passed down from one generation to the next. Instead of starting from scratch, your children and grandchildren can build on what you’ve already created. Unlike short-term income (like salaries), generational wealth grows over time, can be inherited or transferred, and offers security and opportunity for future generations.

3. Real Estate Can Be Passed On: Property is tangible and transferable.

4. Leverage and Equity: You can use real estate as collateral.

5. Protection Against Inflation: Property often increases in value, even when currency loses value.
