Would love to talk REI mainly commercial an industrial.  

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. 

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.

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 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..

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

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.  

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.

I’m particularly interested in strategies for scaling in the multi-family space, creative financing options, and building strong partnerships.If you’ve worked on similar deals or have insights into the best ways to grow in this industry, I’d love to hear from you.
