I personally invest as a member in a passive real estate investing club, where we all go in on these together to invest small amounts, and vet new deals together every month.

Does anyone have recommendations, and if you had personal dealings with them that were positive or negative.Thanks in advance for your help.

Personally, I perceive a fair amount of risk in the market.

I'm personal friends with the owner and they do a great job. https://www.livindy.co/
