Assessing brokers based on their transaction history and success in the market carries more weight than simply focusing on the highest price offered.

I wouldn’t get a 15 yr mortgage, even if that builds equity quicker because you are simply putting more dead money into your property.

I also wouldn't be where I am today in terms of my contacts and relationships with vendors, to be in a position to self-manage confidently out of state.All that being said, if another deal with the same amount of hair on it presented itself to me today, I would pass simply because my risk profile has changed.

It was those 2022 delivered  projects where I became an accidental landlord that led me to focus more attention on building to researched housing needs rather than simply replicating the inventory other's bring to the market and it's been a game changer for me and my business. 

@Constance Kang well you discovered how many of the most expensive REI instructors work in this industry.

As of my last update in April 2023, the definition of an accredited investor includes, but is not limited to, the following:Income: Individuals who have had an income of more than $200,000 (or $300,000 together with a spouse) for the past two years and expect the same for the current year.Net Worth: Individuals with a net worth exceeding $1 million, either alone or together with a spouse, excluding the value of the person's primary residence.Insiders: Directors, executive officers, and general partners of the company selling the securities.Professional Experience: Certain professional certifications, designations, or credentials or other credentials issued by an accredited educational institution may allow an individual to be considered accredited.Knowledgeable Employees: In the case of private funds, "knowledgeable employees" of the fund are also considered accredited investors.Institutions: Banks, partnerships, corporations, nonprofits, and trusts with assets exceeding $5 million.By imposing these criteria, Regulation D is meant to ensure that all participants in such an offering are capable of fending for themselves or sustaining the risk of loss, thus requiring less regulatory protection.Under Rule 506(c), it is not enough for an investor to simply claim accredited status.
