As a licensed Real Estate Broker in Maine, I managed the acquisition and renovation of 1272 Lakins Rd, Etna, leveraging my expertise and industry knowledge.

Large deposits are nice, but very difficult to actually get access to escrow funds in the event of default.

In any event you can see what the SEC thinks of modernization here:https://www.sec.gov/news/press...I have read of late that small family offices can pool non-accredited investor money to qualify that entity as an accredited investor. 

Within the Industry.

A note failing after two months is a pretty rare event Aloha is a very experienced lender. 

It is the green eyed monster of this industry. 

Moreover, office spaces often face more competition, especially with the rise of remote work and changing demand in the market.On a personal level, I prefer industrial real estate for several reasons.

I have experience in single family fix and flip, 1-4 family rentals, small apartments (10-30 unit), 100+ unit apartments, development, commercial retail, industrial and office.

Operating in an industry where "we track time," I can offer a few hopefully helpful tips:1.

As you suggest lowering down payment to buy more properties is one way, although the downside is greater risk in event of down cycle and more time to manage required.
