I am the only real estate investor with my bookkeeper and at first she thought this was a little overboard but once she started setting rules in Quickbooks to simplify her work she quickly realized how simple this method makes things.

The BRRR method is not about "numbers working" in a given market. 

This rule is part of the Securities Act of 1933, which was established to provide more freedom for businesses to raise capital while still protecting investors.Here are the key aspects of Regulation D, Rule 506(c):Rule 506(c) Filing:Allows issuers to broadly solicit and generally advertise an offering, provided that all purchasers in the offering are accredited investors.Requires issuers to take reasonable steps to verify that the purchasers of the securities are accredited investors.Issuers must still file a "Form D" with the SEC after they first sell their securities.The rule effectively lifts the prohibition on general solicitation and advertising for certain investment offerings, allowing companies to reach a broader audience when seeking investment.Accredited Investor Definition:To become "accredited," an investor must meet certain defined criteria regarding income, net worth, professional experience, or size of the entity (if the investor is an entity rather than an individual).
