In addition to numerous tradition RE related investments (most individually owned but some as LP), here are our unusual investments (both are RE related, but not what is common on this site)- I have mentioned this one a few times on BP, when fracking was just starting to be known to the general public (near turn of century), we purchased mineral rights in North Dakota.  

That means you have to hire an attorney with uncertain outcomes.5.

BUT, if the property is listed FSBO, it's a regular ol' average joe trying to do the work of an agent to save a buck.. and doing it badly apparently. it's not unusual to say 'we don't want to disturb every tenant without a signed offer,' but they should have interior photos of at least most of the units.

@Taylor DavilaGiven your situation as a professional athlete with uncertain future locations, a traditional house hacking strategy might indeed be challenging due to the requirement of making the property your primary residence for a certain period.Considering your liquidity and interest in getting started, a fix and flip could be a viable option.

The good news is that there is an unusual split in the market now, which won’t last forever, of which you can take advantage.Residential properties, at least in SoCal where you own, are still selling for relatively high prices.

We feel good about this as it almost sold awhile ago for this exact amount and has been appraised around this as well.I'm in the unusual position of being able get financing from a private lender. 

Increased investment and job creation in some sectors indicate economic progress, however, the long-term sustainability of these efforts remains uncertain. 

You probably just see more deals, more unusual situations, more opportunities. 

As elections get closer we will likely see consumer confidence start to become more uncertain due to the political climate and then resume again after elections are finalized.ibuyers and hedge funds are also ramping up acquisitions which is further pushing demand and lack of affordability.If/when the Feds do lower rates we will see a temporary improvement in affordability, however we do expect that small window to close quickly as lower rates will bring a lot of pent up demand back into the market which will push home values higher and cause affordability to worsen.With all factors considered here in the local Las Vegas and Henderson market we are encouraging buyers to buy sooner rather than later while they can get lower prices and seller concessions and then if needed refi later when rates come down and they have more equity.

Hi BP, I've run into an unusual situation and am debating ending a lease early.
