No thanks.I look at real estate as a lifetime investment, and hopefully future income for my kids and their kids.If you bought a cabin last year and already want to sell, you probably didn't go in with a reasonable expectation of the investment.  

The returns that investors require is generally based on their perceived risk of the project and the investment period.With my CFO clients who do real estate development, most LPs in the small-scale residential space (SFR & 2-4 MF) are investing for 3-5 years and are looking for a preferred return of 8% with an IRR of 16%-18% for turn-key and 18%-24% for value add.

Welcome to the world of real estate investing!

I’ve specialized in working with real estate investors for many years, and I’d love to hear more about your goals.

To generalize broadly, most who call themselves private or hard money lenders (or any of the other euphemisms for the same thing) typically originate first-position or (rarely) second-position performing real estate loans.

I suspect you'll have to look at Florida real estate in a similar way.

You came to the right place to learn more about real estate investing, Zach! 

As we’re beginning to get a grasp on the scale of the challenges ahead we wanted to highlight a few areas of note and concern that is already influencing the local and national real estate market.

I realize I'll need to consult with my attorney and CPA for actually structuring these, but I'm interested to learn from anyone here who's scaled their real estate business from their individual portfolio or flipping business, to bringing in outside capital to grow. 

Hey@Briley Roe for my most recent real estate deal (brrrr).
