One investor, an engineering manager who considered himself relatively sophisticated about real estate but had never invested in a colleague’s startup, says he found Khafagi convincing.

I like these amongst ,many other right nowREXR - (Rexford) they are a niche (sub-specialist) in industrial warehouse/distribution/manufacturing in the southern California only urban or Infil area, they are not international like PLD - prologis, their MOAT is that SO-Cal has geographic limitation to new inventory, so they have rent pricing power that industrial in rest of country doesn't, also 26 million people in so-Cal and the 2 busiest Ports in country, their earning/revenue projections next few years are best in class, and they are cheaper on price to book than PLD or others, I own some and will buy a lot more in upcoming Recession, likely in next 6-12 months, when publicly traded equities will likely slide by 20-30% although their assets (physical buildings) are only going up in valueVICI- (casino REIT), used to be part of Cesars palace, then Caesars spun them out in 2018, to do sale leasebacks of their properties to take all that physical capex off the books.

This industry is so much more sophisticated and has translated a slightly better mousetrap into market share.

i see lots of new development near sky river casino and in elk grove florin rd (lennar) . 

If you were going to charge then I’m sure Chargepoint has a system (they run the chargers at the local casinos and can be set to free or charge per kw or per minute.)

As a seller, I can understand incentivizing buyer agents to show my property by offering some level of compensation to maximize market exposure, especially when many other listings don't offer compensation.As a buyer, the new system would seem to be for the benefit of sophisticated buyers who don't necessarily care about the down sides of dual representation and are able to protect themselves.As a buyer's agent, generic exclusive representation agreements at buyer's cost are likely a very hard sell.

So, agents do not use anything more sophisticated than posting to social media? 

Tampa has a lot of draws, to name a few is Beach, Boating, Golf, Casino, Intl Airport/Biz Travel, Busch Gardens, NFL/NHL/MLB, Concerts/Festivals, and more.I would say Sarasota is a submarket of Tampa but has its own attributes as well. 

In a 506(b) deal you are allowed to bring in up to 35 sophisticated investors that don't meet the accredited standard, and almost as many as you want accredited investors.  506(c) you can market offering, and need to take reasonable steps to verify they are indeed accredited.Reg A(+) you can market and raise from non-accredited, but more regulatory filings.I think there are a lot more accredited investors than you think.  

Assessing the seller's professionalism and sophistication is critical in deciding the level of detail required in this procedure.
