Poll: percentage of net worth in net RE equity

Can you say more about their financing terms? Need to put any of their own money down?

What is real estate in the chart? Once you form a LLC, is a business. Although I didn’t form a LLC but I get a PM for Austin rentals, so to me, is a business, I suspect I would eventually form a LLC for them. I don’t view that the rental in SV as a business though.

Not many people can run a business well, so is hard for most people to cross $10 mil :grinning: As the poll has indicated, not many cross $10 net worth in this forum, i recall only 3?

I don’t know anymore. They used to have partners like me put down the money. Don’t think they need partners anymore.

I have come across people who take other people’s money without putting a cent of their own. They go out find the properties and get partners to pay for 100% of everything but they take 10% ownership ā€œfor freeā€. Their selling point is that you rich people don’t have the time and hustle to find value add properties. Let me do that for you. In exchange I take a small ownership cut.

That’s an active business instead of passive rental ownership.

Really? I’ve been doing this all wrong. Should have gone after the rich people and ask them for money :wink:

I do have an LLC. I only use that for flipping though. Too much work to convert rentals into an LLC… does it make economic sense to do that?

What hassles other than mortgage? Since I paid off some rentals, planning to move them under Corp

Aren’t you already doing that? You sell equity against your future profit on a flip.

Ok sure if you want to look at it that way… :rofl:

But what are the benefits? :wink:

I think it should be all or nothing. So I’ll wait on this one…

I heard about those benefits before… some lender explained those to me. Ok well I need to establish credit first with my LLC… one step at a time :slight_smile:

Vaguely recalled you’re one of the three :sweat:

Whats with all the polls ? There will always be someone who is wealthier than you (Bezos prob is an exception) as well as billions who are much less fortunate …

Its simply undescribable that a dozen men on the planet have as much wealth than the remaining 90% of humanity …if that is not a conversation starter then i dont know what is …

It’s good that this is the case. If everyone makes the same amount of money then there will be no incentive for improvements. Progress will stall. So, the more inequality, the better.

I am not advocating socialism or handouts …but clearly there is something wrong with a system that has led to the situation above …

LLC is good still, but it’s expensive, i hear. Somebody suggested doing land trust that lists llc as beneficiary. And one trust, one llc per asset.

I certainly care about privacy, so i will probably go this route. I also hear it prevents scammy-suers for arbitrary garbage
