Show notes

Do you want to get started in real estate investing but don’t have the funds to purchase an entire property? Fractional real estate investing may be the answer you’re looking for. Fractional investing offers lucrative opportunities to own part of a property rather than an entire one.

Fractional real estate ownership can be affordable for startup investors who want to enter the real estate market. But what is fractional investing? And is this the right investing model for you?

1373 - Watch Out: Accredited Investor Minimums Might Increase Soon—Here’s How That Impacts Investors by Lindsay Frankel Jul 18, 2024

Show notes

A December report issued by staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) discusses several potential modifications to the accredited investor definition, as suggested by sources like the Investor Advisory Committee and the Small Business Capital Formation Advisory Committee.

The Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 requires the SEC to review the definition every four years in light of changes in the economy. The goal is to maintain sufficient protection for unsophisticated investors while providing for investor participation in exempt offerings that play an important role in innovation and economic growth.

1372 - Underinvestment in Real Estate Might Be the Next Big Hurdle for Investors, According to a New Report by Moriah Costa Jul 17, 2024

Show notes

There may be a real estate underinvestment crisis looming in the coming decades, thanks to baby boomers.

According to a joint study from Morning Consult and home improvement company Leaf Home, 55% of baby boomers plan to age in their 40-year-old-plus homes and have no intention of selling or renovating.

That means when millennials inherit homes, they may be faced with a mountain of deferred maintenance that may prove costly and lead to a potential construction and supply crunch. Meanwhile, empty nesters own twice as many large homes as millennials with kids, contributing to the housing supply crunch across the U.S.

1371 - The House Voted Passed a Bill That Could Bring Back 100% Bonus Depreciation—Here’s What Investors Need to Know by Lindsay Frankel Jul 16, 2024

Show notes

At the end of January, the House passed legislation that would extend some of the provisions of Trump’s 2017 tax bill and expand the Child Tax Credit (CTC), along with other tax reform measures.

If passed by the Senate and signed into law by President Biden, the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024 would allow real estate investors to continue to claim 100% bonus depreciation, elect to expense depreciable business assets up to an increased limit, and potentially deduct business interest up to a higher limit. The Act would also restore domestic research or experimental costs expensing.

1370 - Don’t Skimp: Using a Free Lease Template Will Cost You More in the Long Run by Corby Goade Jul 15, 2024

Show notes

One of the questions we see on the BiggerPockets forums over and over again is, “Where do I find a good lease document?”

When people ask that question, they really don’t mean that they want a good lease document. What they mean is they want a free lease document.

The truth is that leases are really the most important investment you’ll make when starting your career as a self-managing real estate investor. The free leases that self-managers share are likely to be the most expensive option you’ll find in the long run.

1367 - What I Learned From National Retailers to Decide What and Where to Invest—And How You Can Do It Too by Eric Fernwood Jul 12, 2024

Show notes

In 2005, I decided to start an investor services business. I reviewed all the popular investing literature. What I found were self-professed experts offering opinions and no processes. As an engineer, opinions hold little value.

I shifted my research focus to the commercial sector, where I found rigorous processes that resonated with me. I discovered that retail store location selection and stocking methodologies are excellent guides to systematic residential investing.

Here, I will explain how I use methodologies from national retailers to select properties that generate reliable income.

1366 - Now Is a Great Time to Go Hunting for Passive Multifamily Deals—Regardless of the Headlines by Tyler Moynihan Jul 11, 2024

Show notes

In case you missed it, Scott Trench, CEO of BiggerPockets, wrote this thoughtful article: Multifamily Is at High Risk of Continuing Its Historic Crash in 2024—Here’s Why. Scott and I have been discussing this topic offline anyway, so I thought I would take him up on his invitation to debate the subject online. Healthy debate is what BiggerPockets is all about, right?

I will start by saying I agree with most of what Scott wrote. I agree with most of his facts, the challenges facing the multifamily space, and especially the problems with many operators who have run into problems of late.
