Post: What would your Real Estate strategy be if you inherited $10MM?

@Sonal Chopra what a great question, thank you for asking this to this community.

Long-term goal would be the same goal my wife and I have today; Build, passive on going revenue streams that exceed our current and future expenses with the ultimate goal of giving away 80% of what we make to charities and causes we want to support. This creating more time freedom in our lives, while providing generosity to the world.

We’re currently pursuing this through both active and passive investments in Real Estate Syndications. With a $10MM windfall, we put a vast majority towards passive investments with a diversified group of experienced syndicator partners. We’re well versed in market and investment analysis so we we insure the assets we invite into are spread out across different geographic locations, different MSA clusters types, and varied asset types & classes. 
Warren Buffett says “wide diversification is only required when investors do not know what they are doing.” In essence he was just saying invest in what you know. I know, like, and trust in the long term powers of large scale real estate providing quality returns that out perform the market. This is in part why most of the funds would be invested into this area.

Typical syndications would yield anywhere from 6-10% cash on cash annually, and 15+% IRR over the course of the holding periods. Assuming an average 8% CoC return and factoring in none of the backend, if I invested a total of $5MM into several syndications (assuming some of the windfall went to taxes), we would yield $400,000 annually.

Depending on your current and future desired lifestyle you could continue to live modestly, and reinvest a large portion of the dividends earned. 
For my wife and I, we would continue this process until 20% of the dividends exceeded our desired future living expenses, and donate a vast majority towards worthy causes.

Lastly, we would also use a tax levered savings vehicle for the long-term “storage” of our money as well. There are several trusted ways to do that, but so won’t go into it on this post.

Again, @Sonal Chopra this was a very fun exercise to reflect on our long term vision. Excited to see what everyone else is looking to create in their futures as well with this fictitious windfall.

Hi @Maria T.,

The real estate market fundamentals for Central Florida are strong for many asset classes. Just wrapped up my master in real estate degree from FIU and we‘ve done some analysis of that area. 

I also have a few RE contacts that live in Central Florida that I could point your way.

Happy to connect.

Best,

Jorjio
