I’m not looking to be an active/public realtor, just need a place to hold my license.For context, I currently hold an active HI real estate license in good standing and have strong networks on both Molokai and Maui.

Quote from @Jaša Rot: Hello Marshall,thank you for your reply.my idea was to sign a trust deed and promissory note with the borrower so that the loan is secured by collateral.

Look for undervalued properties.Network: Connect with local real estate agents, contractors, and other investors for insights and deals.Analyze Properties: Use the 1% rule to evaluate potential properties (monthly rent should be at least 1% of the total investment).Secure Financing: Explore different financing options like conventional loans, hard money loans, or private lenders.As for timing, if you can handle the extra responsibility, starting now could give you a head start.

No off-street parking = not worth doing MTR unless it meets all of the following: super urban area where no parking is the norm, highly desirable area with a ton of MTR demand, super safe part of the city, and has great public transportation (think NYC, Hoboken NJ, etc.)Unless it meets all of the criteria above, I pass on those opportunities because my MTR will be eliminating the many people that travel with their vehicles.

Flipping is probably a little more intense, but can still be done with a day job, but again, my average flip versus my average rental: flip has made much better returns.And as for generational wealth and handing down something to your kids... well, I guess I view it as: if I can hand my kids a $10mm trust fund held in public securities, or $10mm real estate portfolio, they are going to be pretty set either way, but a real estate portfolio will continually have costs and work, a brokerage account is a bit more set and forget, with some periodic rebalancing.

Areas of consideration:- Rehab to Rental- Flip to Public Market- Wholesale (If the deal comes with major equity and ROI incentives)If you are interested in joining the team, please respond below or connect with me through Bigger Pockets.Best regards,Drew Hantla

Rpdata.com.au is probably the best for residential dataAny of the major agencies CBRE/JLL/Knight Frank/Savills/Mirvac will have reportsPlus a lot of the publicly listed REITs will have reports too ie DEXUS/Investa/Lend Lease/Westfield/Stockland/Cromwell etc.

If they don't maintain a website, you ask them how they update the public with foreclosure statuses.

@Meena MallikFrom my experience, securing financing for commercial real estate involves understanding your options, such as conventional loans, commercial loans, private lenders, or partnerships.

Do either of you mind sharing your public Airbnb profile pages with the branded accounts?
