When it’s smooth sailing, we tend to float along, feeling good about ourselves and our investments in real estate, the stock market, crypto - any asset class. 

I'm very active—I ride my bike, walk to the beach about 3-4 days a week, and can walk to most of my workout classes.

Not a protected class.

This has all been very good experience, but I am ready to focus and scale: one asset class, one location, one strategy. 

Fundrise was created in 2012 and is better but still ultimately in the same boat.

Yes we can use use by simply creating "classes" for each property, and categorize expenses.

I went to their weekend training, but seemed like the networking with others in the class was more useful.

An example would be buying a SFR house in a Class B area for 230-250K that is renting for 1600-1800 range, those are not home run numbers but with low property taxes these are still better deals than what you find in other places.All the best in your search!

Maybe if you buy it and live in it where you only have to put 3-5% down you could pull something off… but we bought mostly C class properties back in 2018-2021 and our dollars to close were usually in the high 20’s to low 30’s just to buy the property with 20% down. 

@Nathan G. is 100% right, but we'll add that it depends on the Class of the rental and corresponding tenants.The better the class, the more you can "bend" your requirements.
