Public REIT's trade on the stock exchange, they're basically the stock of a company that is a landlord or holds mortgages.  

How working without a clear scope of work and a basic understanding of residential construction project management, as @Frank Geiger mentioned, just a vague idea that you're going to begin at the beginning and end at the end, makes it even worse.I started on a very small, limited flip, a basement efficiency apartment.
