Interested In REIT's / eREIT's Newbie

[Latasha Y. Lane]

Hello Everyone!!

I am here to ask for info on REIT's. My daughter just graduated from high school last month and my goal is to make a couple of investments for her. Within these past few days, I have done a lot of research online and ordered a couple of books to educate myself in this area. I ran across Fundrise, Streitwise, and Robert Kiyosaki offering his new book, The Lazy Way To Investing...which I have not paid the $79.00 sign up fee he is requesting as of yet. If anybody have any experience with either one of these companies or on Mr. Kiyosaki, please share. I would also like any advice on any other REIT's you may know of. I am aware that you can use ETF's as a vehicle as well.

I am going this route (REIT) because I don't have tens of thousands of dollars to invest, yet. And also, to use this as a learning curve into investing. I love my daughter and I want to help her financially for the long haul as oppose to putting the money into her hands. I don't want her to struggle like her grandmother and I had to.

Just looking to connect with people who have experience and willing to give some advice.

Thanks

Thanks for responding @Ryan Ingram. 

I find myself waking up and going to bed to investment research. I must say it is very interesting. And, OR, I am really dedicated in making the right choices for my daughter. Either way, i am motivated!! It is sooo much information out here and I know I have come no where near one-fourth of the knowledge I need to have to enter into this game. Fortunately, that doesn't scare me nor deter me from moving forward. If at any time you have any reliable info you think I should read up on...pls share.

Again, thanks
