Quote from @Mohammad Arif: Hello folks, new to this forum and to Real estate investment, looking to invest passively, both for long and short term, what would you guys recommend, what are your thoughts on real estate syndicates and who do you recommend, thank youI'm familiar with Gatsby Investments and have only good things to say about the company but everyone is different, so you have to see if it would work for you, your investment style, risk tolerance, etc.I believe, all of their available syndication offerings are limited to /around the area where they are physically located (Los Angeles, CA).
