@Bob Asad I like the individual sub account method escrow account, but there are multiple different ways to hold security deposits and multiple laws in different states.

•Tenants demand prompt, high-quality service and without caring about cost •Vendors seek to earn as much compensation for their work as possible.Balancing these needs requires thoughtful stewardship, strong communication, and a commitment to fairness.

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

My suggestion is to buy a property worth more than $1M since anything cheaper for 4-plex will not be high quality.

I don't plan on sticking to one method of investing however I do realize that some investors start with Single family and grow into multi-family.

It's crucial to consult with a tax professional who understands the nuances of your situation to determine the most appropriate and cost-effective method for your tax filings.

If you want good tenants and peace of mind, I recommend looking for Class A or B properties as these usually attracts quality tenants.

With $4+ million in equity, you could conservatively leverage your replacement property(ies) and generate strong passive cash flow from high quality NNN assets.

@Shiloh Lundahl Awesome, thank you ok so having that 10-20k as a buy in is important, to first getting into it.... it helps get those first deals started.... just as an aside : I am also just starting out doing finder's fee methods - with tax foreclosure overages refunds, and assett recovery / state funds refunds... so I think those can help me to get that intial 10-20,000.... it might take me some months, but I think I can get there.... that's my initial plan, at leastAnd if I can get that saved up, then that will help me break into deals....
