Strategy to invest - Fundrise/alt or other?

Strategy to invest - Fundrise/alt or other?

Member since 2020 · 2 posts · 1 vote

Hello,

I have monthly loan payments equalling about 500.00 per month and have about 50k to try and come up with a strategy.

I was looking into something like Fundrise, in which I can earn about 6k per year assuming a 12% return rate.

I know that Fundrise is not a liquid investment but if the return stays consistent, will take care of the monthly loan obligation.

Knowing that I can pull the trigger there pretty quickly and is pretty hands-off, versus doing more research and networking and going in on some private real estate deals with some people, has me kind of intimidated as I currently work about 70 hrs per week and have little time ( or energy) for anything else.

Are there any other alternatives I should consider?

Knowing the loan obligations will pretty much be on auto, and after paid off, quarterly returns of 12% (hopefully) has me leaning towards the Fundrise solution, but don't know if there are other alternatives I should explore 

Thanks in advance!

     Greetings David, 

    With fundrise based on my research, the complaints I have come across are those who are doing short term and not long term.  So long term return, yes Fundrise is the way to go, it is really what you are looking for.  Due to your workload of 70+ hours a week, I would recommend looking into passively investing but I would focus on long term returns to get the best results and most importantly, your return.  Hope this helps and open to connecting.
