Im a really big sponge for learning everything about real estate.

While I am an attorney and lean on those skills I would be more inclined to consider my career that of a real estate developer at this point.

Hi @Michael Goddard what are your real estate goals?

My clients are mainly real estate developers, PE funds and individual investors doing syndications and my core skill is in real estate valuation / due diligence across real estate asset classes. 

I currently have a rental property and am looking at getting my real estate license and building a property management and property maintenance company to serve my investments and potentially others.  

The deal was identified by my real estate agent and requires a quick closing.How did you finance this deal?

It sounds like you have a great background for investing as well as assisting other real estate investors in buying suitable real estate. 

If you are able to actively use the funds I would say start a real estate marketing company with it. 

A trust transfer allows for smoother estate planning, and if inherited after their passing, the land receives a step-up in basis, reducing future capital gains tax.Each method has pros and cons depending on their estate plans and your long-term goals.
