There's no way you should put it in an index fund unless you're prepared to cover any losses.

Brandon has done a video covering this, but I am interested in hearing what you guys have to say.

Does anyone have any positive or negative experiences purchasing homes from an investment company which they rehab, screen tenants and property manage in another state?  

I have lived there for a couple of years and that market can offer some very nice CoC ROI and I have people there whom I can trust on helping me screening potential houses.

This would protect you against lawsuit from people getting hurt on the property.You can buy a building policy as well if you want to cover damage to it, but it does not sound like that is the purpose of the investment. 

Currently he only needs funding to help cover the rehab completion.Here's a summary of the dealARV: $315k (I've verified that this is in the ballpark +/- 10k)Purchase Price: $130kRepairs to date: $32kAdd'l rehab estimate: $25k << my pieceProposed terms from my colleague:I am offering 13% annual on a 12 month note with a guarantee of minimum 10% return.

Whether investing is low-income or very affluent areas screening your tenant is a must.

Hi @Mike Day, I would avoid doing a blanket loan covering more than one property.

Meaning your income would have to cover both notes.
