I'd suggest getting to as many in-person meetups as possible...the in-person energy is different and some of the best connections & friends have been through in-person meetups. 

I look around and I have so many half-built towers that are taking up my time, energy, money and focus.

You're asking someone to spend a lot of time and energy to share what they've spent years - maybe decades - learning and developing.

it just blows my mind' how people have so much energy to attempt to share how smart they are and ridicule the question without answering it.

I only invest in larger commercial developments focusing on clean energy projects (mostly in CA right now) and affordable housing in NV, OH and looking in FL, TX, CT, ID, and AZ right now. 

Plus, older properties in established neighborhoods often have more stable appreciation over time.On the other hand, the new development, though slightly more expensive, might offer modern amenities, energy efficiency, and potentially lower maintenance costs.

@Tiago Montoya I'm not an expert, but have spent a significant amount of time and energy researching tax liens/deeds in my state and the state adjacent to me.

Energy will be the most weaponized and in demand area for the rest of our lives. 

But that isn't that attractive because they then have to spend time figuring out what to give you, setting it up, teaching you things to be able to do it, and that's a lot of time and energy spent.

To pick just one of those items and call it "investing" is not understanding the element of time/energy coefficient.
