Anyone work in Tech (and invest in RE?)

Hi - I've been discussing with my Tech (FAANG, etc) friends on creative ways to invest in RE. Besides using cash (some tech folks have high salaries), to buy SFHs or LP into syndications, what other options are there?

One we have explored recently is to use company stock and get a loan or line of credit against it to buy RE. Of course there are risks and borrowing against your stock that need to be understood.

Are there any creative ideas? Happy to connect! Cheers

@Chris Lai

I think private lending is one thing that seems ideal for high net worth individuals who don’t have time due to the number of hours and responsibility.  It’s a hands-off way to invest with a great cash on cash return of there money.  12%-15% return compared to the stock market right now seems like a great return.
