In general the equity deals will be better returns then debt given the higher risks.RS has two different equity deal types:- pref equity- equity Pref equity usually has higher annualized returns but once that is met you don't get to participate in any upside.For equity there's a preferred rate but it's lower then what you'll see in a pref equity deal but after you pass the pref rate you still get to participate in any upside.This is detailed in the waterfall under the financial tab.RealtyShares does charge a fee to manage the funds so you will find higher returns on direct sponsorship models platforms like CrowdStreet and RealCrowd.

I guess I did not realize I could participate directly with a sponsor as a non-accredited investor, sort of tricky because they can't advertise to me, however I'm not aware of a place where I can go and seek them out (except maybe here).

I have listed for sale a 4 acre parcel that is adjacent to existing single family residential developments, most of the area homes are valued between $350k and $550k, with several at $700k+ and on acre to 1.25 acre lots.Is listing my parcel with a residential real estate agent participating in MLS the best approach for marketing and selling? 

If you qualify the beauty is that you can earn and learn as a limited partner participating with experts that do this for a living.
