Los Altos, Calif. - Jerry Garrity with Los Altos property management company First Statewide Realty says it's still possible, even in these tough economic times, to maintain a positive cash flow on real estate investments.

As property values fluctuate with regional and macroeconomic factors, he says his investor clients stay in the game through smart investing and expert property management.

"Seasoned investors know that property management services belong in the asset column, not the expense column on the balance sheet. With the right mix of savvy investing and conservative property management, we can keep our clients in the black when others cannot."

Garrity says the reasons his clients are still able to stay positive is that they have a plan and are sticking with it.

"So many investors try to chase the market up and down, but that's more like speculation than investing. We help our clients evaluate potential deals to add to their portfolio drawing from our experience in all types of marketing conditions."

He says that while investors and speculators alike can get discouraged about property values, those who stick with a long term plan with tight controls on expenses will come out ahead.

"We've weathered several bull and bear markets in real estate. Consequently, so have our clients. I think that says a lot."
