I am curious as to how everyone markets their personal real estate business on LinkedIn. We currently own/manage 4 units and will have a few more by the end of this year. We are getting to the point where friends/family/etc are beginning to express interest in financing deals and it would be great to begin garnering the same interest via LI. My question- how do you showcase your success as a small/medium investor to grab the attention of a professional network full of potential investors? Additionally, what can a young investor do to demonstrate credibility on a social network in lieu of years of experience?

Follow up question-what do you list as a title/name for your small RE business when you have an LLC and do not want to call yourself "CEO" or "President" of ABC Properties? It would be interesting to hear some opinions. Thanks!

Thanks a lot everyone, those were some really good ideas. I have talked to a couple professors already and had an impressive list of topics to discuss with them.  The concensus so far is that I should write more toward something like Brandon suggested where I can devise a model to forecast future growth and the current state of our real estate market since they want something more academic/statistical/econometric. Since I go to school in Montreal, it will more than likely be about how to determine a real estate bubble, whether Canada is currently in a real estate bubble, and what the side effects will be, etc. I should have it sorted out by the end of this week for sure but just wanted to say thanks again- I wasn't expecting so much help. If anyone would like to see the final product just message me I would be more than happy to share.

Hi everyone,

I am a senior in university and my final finance class requires us to write a thesis type paper (research paper with "significant original contribution" to the topic) and so I was hoping to spend this time researching and building on a topic that we all enjoy, real estate.

The requirements are really open-ended so I was wondering if anyone here might have some interesting ideas/prompts/questions to write about in the subject of real estate finance. It will take about 2 months to complete and be anywhere from 50-100 pages so I can really dig deep into the topic. I would be glad to share the final product at the end of the semester as well if anyone is interested.

I am posting this not only for my benefit, but to benefit anyone else that is interested in a topic and would like some research and data.

Thank you in advance for any help or direction!
