For cypto my plan is to invest via LP syndications, hence it's indirect.

@Ryan Morrissey I've been investing here in Fall River for the last 7 years.I want to correct the figures above and say that vacancies are probably closer to 5-7% and that the high turn over and non-payment you are experiencing is in direct relationship to the skill level of the landlord.That said, your property manager should be doing a much better job at managing your buildings, but at the end of the day you as the landlord are responsible for ensuring that they hold the line.Fall River and New Bedford are easy markets to manage tenants, but what I see from the people who are struggling here is a lack of quality Human Systems.The tenants have to have a context to work with and understand that there is a human they are paying rent to, not just a "Landlord".Also the quality of the tenant is dictated by the standards of the landlord.

I'm Muslim; my religion prohibits dealing with interest; either directly or indirectly.

If its true that "we get paid in direct proportion to the complexity of problems we solve", I want our real estate ventures to help communities solve as many problems as we can.Having worked at Amazon the past two years, I'm particularly excited about where they'll announce their HQ2 location.

@Timothy SturgisNote that you cannot invest your solo 401k funds in your own business unless you do it indirectly whereby you process a solo 401k participant loan.

I'm talking in direct response to this sentence.

@Angie MenegayYou cannot directly or indirectly buy a property from your IRA.  

Furthermore you are prohibited from receiving any benefits from the IRA, directly or indirectly.

I am very interested in Direct Mailing but have not sent any here in Germany.

I would like some feedback from individuals with experience in direct mailings, especially those who are having success in this area.
