Hello, I'm an avid saver and investor in non-real estate, and am looking to learn about some relatively passive RE investments that would still yield higher than your typical publicly traded REIT. Ten years ago I did some loaning on prosper with mixed results (actually pretty good considering the overall economy of 2008) but if I did lending today would like to see some collateral out there. I'd like to develop a nice monthly income stream. Currently I have some investments in stocks, some in a private loan at a good rate, and a minority ownership share in the restaurant that I work at, as a delivery driver.
