I've been building a watchlist and I put a few things on it that I now suspect aren't REITs at all. One is a homebuilder, one is a company that manages apartments for other owners…

I've been reading fund pages and the minimums are all over the place. One said $250k and accredited only, another said $50k. Somewhere I also read that you can put ordinary saving…

Landlord client, four doors, full tear-off and replacement on one of them, invoice is $9,400 and says "remove existing shingles, replace decking as needed, install new roof." He w…
I do renovations normally so I'm used to carrying builder's risk from the day I close. Someone in my local group said on a double close you don't need any insurance because you ow…
Met a wholesaler at a local meetup while I'm finishing up my licensing coursework. He has a duplex under contract and said he's slow on the buyer side, so if I bring the buyer he'…

Trying to build a real predevelopment budget for a small commercial site and I keep guessing at the line items. I know I need a survey and a geotech report and civil drawings. I d…
