Which gives me much more control of the money/asset management than just leaving it in the market for alot more years.

University of Kentucky and Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government Land Swap: In 2018, the University of Kentucky exchanged 250 acres near its Coldstream Research Campus for control of several important roads in and around campus, contributing to economic development opportunities and improved urban planning. 

“One of the scariest things that happen in the worst-case scenarios is people turn on people,” he said in one clip after listing a few such scenarios: a new, more-virulent pandemic; artificial intelligence run amok; nuclear war; or “the real war with China and Russia and cybertechnology and the Cold War.”RAD’s survivalist-camp business is in the process of gaining control of 20,000 acres of rural property across multiple sites nationwide, Mendenhall said in an interview last month with the financial blogger and stock picker Jim Woods on Woods’ podcast, Way of the Renaissance Man.But the bulk of the business’ holdings consists of residential real estate, filings show.

AI replies and posts are annoying but hard to maintain/control those.

So, not really passive.Investing in rReal estate offers a lot more control than investing in stocks, but it also requires an investment of time to do well.

@Ed Lopez what controls do you have over what they decide to do?

He believes that area where he will be buying the new homes is going to appreciate and attract more MTRenters, but now, the big difference is that he would now have 3 properties that can go up (or potentially down) in value, go up (or down) in rent, and three times as many vacancies to fill.My back of the napkin assessment is that for only a drop in $200 a month in cash flow, he would control a lot more assets with growth potential and as rents rise over the coming years, the combined rents will increase to a total more than the single rent.HOWEVER.

What's the exit strategy if any, for the investor, given that, with 50%, he has no control and the market there is illiquid, especially when the HELOCs out of North American properties are much more expensive.Properties in Costa Rica are already expensive and I've tried many times to make a potential investment there work and it's never worked with the figures.

You can, for example, control a $1M asset that appreciates $30-50k per year with a $50k down payment plus closing costs if your DTI is in good shape.

Again, this is a factual action that will ensure that you remain in control of your property and that the other tenant has the peaceful use of the property that is a legal right.Fun, huh?
