Seems to be really tough to come up with any real data on this topic.I think you can derive some data from spending some time on VRBO.

There are liquidity, growth, and leverage benefits to the policy owner that are derived from the actuarial science used to build the product.A lot of people, for some reason, go out of their way to write posts complaining about how whole life insurance is expensive and sold by salespeople.

I also know a fair bit about SF rent control laws.Fun fact: I worked on a derivatives accounting investigation into Fannie Mae a few years ago, looking into interest rate hedges.I started learning about real estate within the last 6 months, but quite a few of my family members have RE backgrounds in Chicago, and the Southwest.

Hope you enjoy and derive a huge benefit from this wonderful platform.

Having said that, I have derived great benefits from being a member of my local REIA  which costs me next to nothing.

Generally, all passive income in an IRA would be sheltered from taxes, however if you are using leverage then portion of the income derived from the financed portion of the property would be subject to Unrelated Business Income Tax (or UBIT).

Like Mija noted, they cost real money and time to maintain, and I simply was not deriving enough value from either.I had no intention of GC-ing jobs for clients, which is about all it would have allowed me to do that I can't do already.  

This is easier said than done because passive investors don't really hang out on free platforms because they prefer their privacy, don't derive any value from talking to new investors, and are busy living fulfilling lives ie family/job.2.
