The key is to decide first exactly what type of investing you want to get involved in then learn everything you can about that particular area as you can before jumping into investing.

Hi Everyone;I was curious how investments are typically handled when there is a large number of investors involved (more than 50).

. $720.01 you are in the black, but I'd be evaluating my time involved.

If you are comparing the stability of the investment- vs a shopping center or some other kind of income property, the GRM is a number that many people can get their arms around in the risk assessment part of assessing the deal.

At this time the only "work" I do involves RE.

Banks, occasionally, do the same thing.Further, many, if not most, short sales involve a property that has already had foreclosure paperwork started.

The trend seems to be shifting away from "lipstick flips" into more involved "value add" rehabs, but that doesn't mean that it is impossible.

Do you get actively involved in the process.. making calls, door knocking, etc.?

This involves using larger earnest money deposits (EMDs).

I have a specific challenge that I want to try and find a solution involving land that has lost value and donation.
