No one can time the market, the best advice in REI is winter against springs but even then if you want to just buy X amount per half of year, X amount per quarter, or X amount per two years--cool.

I am fourth generation for a family owned management/development/consulting company based in Southern California but I am in Idaho for college around 9 months out of the year.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

your potential occupancy rates, rental rates (peak and off Peak) etc.could you sell your current cabin, build a caretaker's quarters and somehow get a residential mortgage loan as owner occupied real estate?

I am confused with “quarterly estimated payments”.

Such as buy one quarter pounder get one for a dollar, or buy one quarter pounder get a free french fry.

Min buy in is 50k, pays quarterly distribution. timeline 5-7 yrs, getting very good loan from insurance co source at 6.75% or so with interest only on yrs 1-3 then no defeasance penalties thereafter if they re-fi or sell.
