Appreciation
An asset becoming worth more over time.
Market appreciation is passive - property prices rise across a city and you benefit for doing nothing. Forced appreciation is active: you renovate, raise rents or improve operations and the asset becomes worth more because of what you did.
Forced appreciation is where real estate skill actually lives. Market appreciation is a bet on a trend you do not control.
