Quote from @Sofia De Santos Tavarez: Hi, my husband and I are new to real estate investing and have a property we are renting out to tenants.

Get a good attorney to draw up your LLC and spell out what everyone does and how you can push any of you out when they underperform.

Purchase price: $379,000 Cash invested: $75,800 Added to our long term investment portfolio.

If you're going to make a lot of changes, I recommend consulting an attorney to ensure you're updated on the laws.

Easier to predict expenses - typically no major repairs unless from association3.

The Trustee of the REIT can buy and sell properties within the REIT without triggering a capital gain event to you as the investor, however, this flexibility also allows the operators to potentially add properties to your investment portfolio that may expose you to risks or asset classes you were previously unaware of.There are a couple of sponsors I am aware of that carve individual properties out of the REIT, into a DST, then pull them back into the REIT at a significant mark-up to the DST investor.

Just trying to understand. 

The specialist I recommend you have is an attorney to properly draft the documents and a title company to facilitate the deal.

A good commercial real estate agent should be able to point you to one.
