@Richard Anderson: You've piqued my interest.Do you happen to know if there are guidelines in the banking industry as to how to handle the Due on Sale Clause when a seller sells on Executory contract to another individual?

Would love to talk REI mainly commercial an industrial.  

Some lenders handle draws in-house, some outsource and depending on who they outsource to, this can become a real crunch. 

Learn from your family and on your own by going to different meet-ups and having conversations with agents, other investors and anyone else in the industry to hear about their experiences.Make 2025 a year of planning and how you will go about that plan. 

This cushions potential value drops.Syndicator vetting: Only partner with syndicators who have a strong track record in different market conditions.Market and asset class knowledge: Understand market cycles and the specific real estate types (multifamily, industrial, etc.) you're investing in.Avoid chasing trends: Just because a market or asset is “hot” doesn’t mean it’s solid.You’re right that this approach doesn’t cap your upside, quality diversification can still generate huge returns while managing risk.Best regards,Drago

I would love to eventually look more into hotels and perhaps the restaurant industry.

I suspect the disclosure language will follow.. and CE  or training is a good idea but that would probably be step 2.Oregon can be pretty funny when it comes to laws and regs.For instance in the logging industry.. there are all sorts of environmental laws of course and as a logger your expected to know them..

The existing number of vacation rentals are so far over those caps that anyone who gets on the wait list today will likely wait 5-10 years before they're up for a permit.I do think this is the natural progression of what is still a relatively new industry.

These lenders essentially take the profits that rightfully belong to their clients—a practice that is not only unethical but destructive to the industry as a whole.The reality is there are plenty of good deals in the market.

It is a well established belief in the financial industry that there is an inherent conflict of interest when financial advisors are compensated on sales commission.
