How to Invest in Art

Markets may be fickle, property could be tricky if you get your money tied up, and gold is nice, but it sure is heavy! If you're looking for something a little different to invest in, that you can enjoy while your investment grows, then art might just be for you. The nice thing about starting an art collection is that you don't need to buy top of the line pieces to begin with. Even pieces by up and coming artists will appreciate over time, and if they happen to really make it big, the piece that you bought when they were still struggling is likely to be worth a fortune. Visit art galleries, look out for shows from artists you like, and do a little research. There are even investment houses that specialize in helping clients to invest in art, so if you n eed a hand getting started, why not speak to one?
