CROWDFUNDING REAL ESTATE
..........................................................................................................................................................................
First off I own two homes, two cabins and two rental properties outright. I also am paying for two more rental properties and hope to have those free and clear in the next few years (but why not let the renters pay the mortgages and build me equity right?). Currently I just don't find any decent deals and certainly no screaming bargains in residential real estate (single homes or multi-family properties).

After weighing the pros and cons of Crowd Funded eREITs I decided to enter the Crowd Funding sector starting with investments into FUNDRISE and RICH UNCLES. I researched REALTY MOGUL and REALTY SHARES but the expenses are higher and I don't see any real advantages to those over FUNDRISE and RICH UNCLES. I chose the Balanced Plus in FUNDRISE and a Starter position in RICH UNCLES (mostly Student Housing). I tend to prefer the Residential REITs for asset protection in down markets but the Retail REITs (Triple Net Properties) have their own advantages. So the Crowd Funding eREITs look like a good fit.

So I will see how this "experiment" goes over the next couple years as I run into my retirement years ...
