WHAT DO I DO WITH $1M ??
Hey everyone ! I am meeting very soon with an investor that has $1M ready to invest with my company in Real Estate. I know this is a good problem to have but I wanted to ask from you guys, what do you think is the best idea to generate returns at max every 3-4 months. My investor wanted to buy and hold apartments here in Miami but after talking to him he realized he could be making triple the money by lending me for my flips. But I wanted to present to him more of a diversified investment plan where we can tackle different investments and diversify his streams of income. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated !

@Jose Trujillo If you are a flipper and have the deal flow to support $1M and he wants to put it all into flips, then that is what he should do. If your area of expertise is flipping, I wouldn't try to tackle different investments for him just to try to diversify his cash. Be honest with yourself and what your strengths and weaknesses are. If you try to manage all his capital and diversify it in areas that you aren't familiar with, you could end up just disappointing the investor.
If you want to diversify his cash, diversify it in the projects you are working on. If you have a $1M flip, don't have him put up all the money for that one project. Spread his capital between your flips, so that he has diversification that way.
