What other low management investment options are there?
Hey guys,
Reading about performing notes has fascinated me; seems like such a superior investment compared to stocks/bonds in terms of variance and ROI.
What else is out there that is relatively passive? Can be REI or non-REI related. Anywhere on the risk/reward spectrum is fine, I'd just like my eyes open to the options for now :)

For me, it's 3rd party PM for rentals, syndications, and index funds...and no more SFR flips.
It did not start out this way at all but my portfolio is now officially passive. I have 33 direct owned units but currently only 2 properties. I have not been to them in 6 months...wife drives by on occasion. I spend a couple of hours analyzing the books each month.
The rest of my real estate portfolio is invested in passive syndications. These large professional sponsors have mature deal flow pipelines; so, it has been an intentional strategy to generate deal flow for me in a market where others are having a tough time finding properties that meet their criteria.
It was a lot of work leading up to this stage, even vetting the passive syndication strategy.
