Then again, if you’re talking about a mortgage on your personal residence, and you live in a state with an unlimited homestead exemption for creditor attachment like Texas or Florida, there’s an asset protection consideration as well.   

I personally dont do any of that.. every market / or most will have an active fix and flip sector or buy and hold sector the important thing to me is the operator full stop.. great operator will do well in any market and all the national data simply is noise at least at my level. ( loaning our own money and JV deals with our own money)  we dont broker or anything like that.

Once you’ve chosen a home, we buy it, renovate it, place a resident, and offer it to you for purchase.

Personal goal is to finish up my real estate license before the start of the year. wow! 

As of my last update in April 2023, the definition of an accredited investor includes, but is not limited to, the following:Income: Individuals who have had an income of more than $200,000 (or $300,000 together with a spouse) for the past two years and expect the same for the current year.Net Worth: Individuals with a net worth exceeding $1 million, either alone or together with a spouse, excluding the value of the person's primary residence.Insiders: Directors, executive officers, and general partners of the company selling the securities.Professional Experience: Certain professional certifications, designations, or credentials or other credentials issued by an accredited educational institution may allow an individual to be considered accredited.Knowledgeable Employees: In the case of private funds, "knowledgeable employees" of the fund are also considered accredited investors.Institutions: Banks, partnerships, corporations, nonprofits, and trusts with assets exceeding $5 million.By imposing these criteria, Regulation D is meant to ensure that all participants in such an offering are capable of fending for themselves or sustaining the risk of loss, thus requiring less regulatory protection.Under Rule 506(c), it is not enough for an investor to simply claim accredited status.

For example when someone wants to have financial freedom and spend more time with family, but then sets a goal by creating a heavy active income stream that involves their personal involvement daily.

Through a client and a lot of research and connections through my Personal Training Industry How did you finance this deal?

@Preston Dean I personally like to make sure I have a set amount of reserves for each property to cover things, so if you have a pool of funds sitting aside personally I would just earmark a certain amount that you don't touch except for that property (or an emergency).

Personally, I love them because they offer built-in diversification.In my experience, local banks are your best bet for financing mixed-use properties.

Personally, I'm very conservative, and I confine myself to sponsors that have a track record of at least one full real estate cycle with either little or no investor money lost.
