One thing every investor needs to be aware of: No real estate fund or syndication is FDIC insured.You may come across phrases like "the money is in an FDIC insured account," which only means the funds are held in a bank account, not under someone's mattress.

HI @Jyotin GautamShort answer is no in Texas Long answer according to the Texas Real Estate Commission " Under the amended rule, a broker could give an unlicensed person a gift of merchandise having a value of no more than $50 and this would not subject the unlicensed recipient to a charge of unauthorized practice as a broker, nor result in a violation of TREC rules by the broker giving the nominal gift."

Maybe a house hack/live in flip.I'm not aware of your markets normal appreciation though, so do take that into consideration.

Thinking about investing in U.S. real estate?

From what I’ve seen, the value of a premium listing really depends on a couple of factors: the local market's activity and how saturated it is with similar rentals.

Or lower your price on a 6-month lease and then find a one-year tenant at market rate in the spring.

Im looking for a part time remote job for my wife as she is a stay at home mom and we are beginning our journey in real estate investing.

I'm also in the "never heard of future stay" camp.We now have 6 units all in the same, tertiary local market in the South, and we manually adjust our pricing based on how close we are getting to a unit coming open.
