Quote from @Phil Matheney: I would love to know Dave's thoughts on our unique Real Estate program. 

For illustration purposes if I were given the opportunity to finance my construction projects at 8O% LTC full recourse or 70% partial recourse I will select the higher levered recourse option because have confidence in my projects knowing the debt is sub 60% LTV and want the benefit of leverage. 

Analyze deals, build your network, and educate yourself constantly.If you have access to unique resources (like a VA loan, FHA Loan, or 401K), use them to your advantage!

Each of these neighborhoods offers a unique vibe, but they all have that lively, walkable feel.For a more suburban lifestyle, here are some great options.

If you can find smaller local banks in the market you pick they may have more unique products that they keep on their balance sheet or try and do the 5% down conventional on a 4-unit  FHA's self-sufficiency test applies to both 3 and 4-unit properties.

As an accredited investor you have access to hundreds of new potential syndications every month (and crowdfunding deals which are the same thing except are allowed to market on the Internet).You may want to start off on a site like CrowdStreet or FinResi , where you can view the variety ( different types of asset classes, strategies, stances) and start to come up with your own method for looking at deals (which matches your unique, personal  risk tolerance, financial situation and financial goals).Thanks Ian.

Right now I am in a unique situation and I have a concern.I want to buy a residential property.

Also if someone wants to do something custom/unique, they may not be able to with the passive investment.

I understand that everyone has unique goals, and responses will vary depending on those objectives.

When I'm selecting an insurance provider, what sort of things should I be looking for?
