Still figuring out which strategy fits me, so I put a small amount into a portal equity deal instead of reading about them for another year. Small retail strip, six bays, one vaca…
This one is on the tenant side of mixed-use rather than the owner side, and I wish someone had walked me through it before I signed. A developer finished a small building near me,…
Numbers first, then the part that nearly killed it. Six-facility portfolio, secondary markets in one state, bought as two separate deals about seven months apart. Total basis $23.…
I manage about 60 single family doors. One of my owner clients stopped paying the mortgage on a rental I collect rent for, which I found out about when the notice of default hit t…
A purchase agreement someone shared for a pre-foreclosure buy has been sitting on my desk, and I've read enough paperwork to know when something snags. It has the buyer selecting…
The service business had a good year and after taxes and payroll I have about 180k sitting in an account doing nothing much. I want a rental. I've read enough to know what I'm loo…
I want boring income and no second job. Two paths keep coming up and they seem to point opposite directions. One: buy a single-tenant building outright, national chain in it, trip…
I brought numbers and I want to know what's wrong with them. Same file, two models. A $94,000 balance on a small single family in a stable secondary market, as-is value $112,000,…
Small rural sponsor, 31 LP entities, five properties in towns under 8,000 people. Their entire investor communication was one letter mailed every January. I offered to run the rep…
Working through a wrap on a small three unit and I keep landing on two versions of the same deal. Version A: sale at 340k, 10k down, wrap balance 330k at 8 percent. Underlying is…
The listing agreement on this one was 5% and the agent already had me walking the building before it hit the wire, so she wanted dual agency from the first showing. I said yes, wi…
I wanted income without a second job, and I'd been told repeatedly that liens are a job. So I went the fund route instead of buying certificates myself. $75k in, three year term,…
This is not the first rental I planned on. I was looking at duplexes and a seller called about a two-story brick building on the main street of a town of about 6,800 people. Four…
Listing is $1.6M. Six apartments at $1,400, plus two ground-floor suites, one at $2,200 a month and one at $1,900, both described as triple net. Seller's sheet adds all of it, sub…
I'm looking at a surface lot near a hospital, 50 striped spaces. The broker's one-pager says "85% occupancy" in big type, then further down the seller's income summary lists 22 mo…
Closed out an LP position last quarter and it worked, though not for any reason in the original deck. Deal was a 300-space structured garage in a mid-size downtown, three blocks f…
This was a private first position loan on a tenant-occupied three bedroom in a mid-size southern metro, funded through a friend who has done twenty of these. $96k against a house…
California's Assembly Bill 1850 was introduced in February 2026 to define wholesaling and require a license for it. As of mid 2026 it hadn't cleared committee, so this isn't law a…
I've got three offerings open in front of me. Two multifamily deals take $25,000 and one takes $100,000. One of the $25k sponsors asked for a letter from my CPA confirming I'm acc…
Been looking at land plays for two years and this is the first syndicated one I've taken seriously. 310 acres on the growth edge of a mid-size western metro, currently agricultura…
