What a fantastic platform!

That is of course no guarantee of the quality of any particular investment, but it does ensure they are obligated to comply with a range of rules and regulations, for example mandating background checks on companies seeking to raise money on their platform.NextSeed is just one of dozens of Reg CF platforms offering a range of investment options to non-accredited investors.

You don't need a political platform, the thinnest reasoning will make the people you get to participate feel like they did a good deed for the neighborhood.

@Felix BadilloUnfortunately that amount of legal/tax assistance is probably not needed as you're getting started out, but its great that you now have a platform on which to expand quickly.  

The closest thread I could find that discussed a topic similar to this is: I have been reading a lot in the discussions about property management platforms and for accounting, for example, this thread: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/206...In other threads I have seen Buildium receive good feedback and in the thread mentioned above Quickbooks seemed to be used by a lot of investors for accounting.  

(You can set up a property manager to manage the tenants and the property)-You could look into an REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust)-Perhaps you could find an online crowdfunding platform that would allow you to invest your $35K into a much larger project-You could use a Self-directed account and lend the funds to someone looking to purchase Real Estate.I wish you much luck in your investments.

I think you'll see entrepreneurs enter into the "autonomous" automobile arena buy acquiring there own autonomous automobiles and tap into whatever platform is available to the public so they can rent there own autonomous vehicles.  

I'm curious what platforms are being used by investors to find contractors.

At a minimum they should identify each host on each platform and add them up.

Their platform updates are poor and the mobile app - ugh (and that's being nice).
