Surely you wouldn’t want to post on a public forum that you’re a newbie to an industry and have $1M at your fingertips.Be prepared to get a lot of colleague requests and messages and proceed with caution because not everyone has your best interest in mind.To answer your question I would put it in a high yield savings account earning 2%+ while I educated myself on all the various types of real estate investment strategies.

Btw - i just got a great value add / hidden value triplex under contract, but im going to leave to germany for two months in june, so im looking to wholesale or jv on that deal. 205k, fully rented below market rents, 8cap but the actual value lies in 60-80k instant equity due to incorrect Public records, its only listed as a 800 sqft studio , but is actually three independent units, two 2/1 and one 1/1 with 2400sqft total on 1/4 acre lot, zoned for 4 units. message me on here or private for more info / location.

A lot of this information bounces around in my head, so I find it somewhat therapeutic to write it down in a public forum.

It wasn't exactly touted to the general public, and is an easy fact to miss.

They want top dollar for bigger commissions and they market properties to the widest audience to benefit their clients.offering less than asking with a property offered to the public may get you a "deal" however the real deals are the properties you buy directly from an owner off market.
