That is when I found a book on Amazon kindle that was only $1.00 but which discussed compounding through real estate investing.

I always hoped they'd go with the name and add two big googly eyes to the bow of the ship.

I would say the best bang for your buck will be Millionaire Real Estate Investor by Gary Keller, The Millionaire Next Door, 10X by Grant Cardone, The One Thing, The Compound Effect and The E Myth.  

More info is needed but you might want to try a commercial mortgage brokerage out of Santa Monica called Financial Compound.

All of that said if your subdivision is an infill for an existing area the thought of rifles or bows being fired off might be the least comforting idea on the planet...

While we also charge a booking fee, it is not compounded like some VRBO and Homeaway listings are.

Of course, I'm not accounting for salary increases or compounding interest because we're keeping it simple here. 

The tax code has always allowed retirement plans to invest in many more things that what Wall St sells, and it takes a different business model to diversify an IRA into things like real estate, private company stock, private mortgages, precious metals, and the like.At the end of the day, an IRA is still an IRA, which is a tax-sheltered vehicle that allows you to compound your savings over time by removing the tax burden on the front end when you initially contribute and on the earnings.

If, hypothetically I can earn, for sure, from my mutual funds or other means a rate of return 12%  annually (fixed) on my invested cash and I can easily reinvest it for compound interest, would you prefer RE efforts with the game of appreciation, depreciation, renting, condos, tenants, fixing, etc. or you will be content with this return.

Still trying to figure that out - probably starting with 4 units, with the goal of compounding quickly if I have a great property management partner.
