For all of you experienced RE investors out there.

New investor here of 5 months!

Yesterday I attended a meeting of Connecticut Real Estate Investor Association and it felt like it was primarily occupied by people who knew little about real estate and wanted to be spoonfed information by an expensive coaches?

We'll do investor deals up to $20M for development all the way down to smaller single-family deals.

But, as others have said, cash flow in this environment is tough and for new investors, they can be baited into cash flow now which means more difficult tenants, lower C to D areas, and expectant capital expenditures.

Investing in medium-term rentals, which are typically defined as tenants renting properties for more than 30 days but less than a year, has become a preferred strategy of many investors.

Opting for a DST allows investors to spread their investments across multiple high-quality properties, benefiting from the advantages of a 1031 exchange to defer capital gains tax.

Yet, for the non-broker investor, what you can get off Crexi is likely a better option for most investor budgets.
