Here are the snippets that are relevant:Hedge fund manager Kyle Bass, who runs Dallas-based Hayman Capital, tanked the stock of a little-known real estate financier Friday by revealing that he is shorting the company.

An investment like this might just be a point of diversification, akin to investing in dividend paying stock in a strong company (like MO).

While you could choose an "S" corporation and have pass-through tax, there are a number of problems with this: (1) you are possibly creating character mis-matches of ordinary income and passive losses, depending upon the level of management activity you have; (2) a buyer is not generally likely to want to purchase your fractional interest in stock - they will insist on a discount or worse, an asset sale. 

The rates will be lower.There's also the interest only option and although you'd have a higher "interest rate", you're monthly payments are going to be lower.So, finding the best rate is very dependent on the type of loan you're looking for.In my case, I want the lowest payment possible because I know I'm going to build way more money in appreciation than paying down the  principle.  

Sankofa is a guiding principle that I apply to my own life.Hope you get answers, I have a very similar question and did not consider some of the issues you posed regarding fees -- just assumed I would have to pay on the buying/selling end, but figured it's paying on commissions I would have previously would have been paying out (at least on the selling end).

My first post aside from Intro, so hope this is the right place and would welcome any insights.I have an Entrust SDIRA that I funded from a roll over of some stock I had from a previous company I’d worked for and had basically ignored until recently.I have a person in FL that I (Lancaster County, PA) want to give a small 30K first position mortgage to.

"You had the chance to pay for pest control and you chose not to" is our stock response with pest complaints.

Next time just stock what is needed per reservation.

It would help if you mention your price range, btw.Of the towns you mention as goals, Lexington probably has the greatest diversity of housing stock and prices.

My original goal was to build a portfolio of dividend paying stocks as well as to invest in Fundrise and peer-to-peer lending platforms.
