Continuous participation.This is great if you are talking about an SMB with effectively connected Real Estate.Note rental activity is considered passive unless you meet the RE Pro threshold of 750 hours and more than 1/2 your time.This is the conundrum for passive real estate investors.If you have a full-time job or a large, time-consuming business it can be difficult or impossible to qualify.A huge loss from depreciation if you have one LP investment isn’t going to do anything for you.

@Mesturah ShittuIt's fantastic to hear about your success in real estate so far, growing your portfolio to 10 units and $5.5M in such a short time.

I have property that has about 100k in equity, I was thinking of selling  it and buying a newer one with a 100k down payment.

Zach Sikes I don't know anything about your market, but wanted to ask if you've filled out your keyword alerts yet?

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.  

Hey @Melissa Wongkamalasai, it can be tougher, but no out of the question.Our area is very limited in season to about 5 months.

I'm wondering about my best options, so I'm turning to this forum for some opinions. 

I retired from the Army about two years ago, and during the last 3 years serving I started investing in real estate for extra income on the side.

What's your first thought when you think of it?  

I got news for you, most people in the U.S dont have not even $50k cash let alone $300k cash liquid.......................WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
