Hey Benjamin,

I work at a real estate investment advisory firm in Denver. We specialize in helping clients with their sales as well as 1031 exchanges. We primarily use DSTs to transfer the client's debt and equity and alternative investments when the investor doesn't mind selling, paying the taxes, and investing in a passive institutional real estate fund (Not REITs, these syndications make investors partial owners in these properties).

One of the funds we do a lot with is an oil and gas mineral rights royalty fund - The investor literally becomes a partial owner of the real estate under the well and receives monthly cash distributions that range from 10-30% when oil is high. 

That $148,000 would yield well over $2,000 / mo in one of these funds, which are completely passive.

Let me know if you'd like more info. 

Hey Ricardo,

I work at a real estate investment advisory firm in Denver. We help clients invest in syndications and the type of syndication that I think could help you cash flow from that equity is a DST.

A DST is a 1031-exchangeable real estate fund that is like any other real estate fund except for your ability to 1031 exchange into it as if it's another actual property.

We help our clients invest in all kinds of DSTs. For example - Multifamily properties, student housing, triple net lease, self storage, etc...

The sponsor of the offering does the research on the deal and acquires the property and lets investors like you purchase pieces of the property, or in this case, exchange your current equity into equity in one of these deals.

These usually pay out 5-10% annual cash flow paid monthly. It's a passive cash flow play as opposed to managing a rental. 

Feel free to reach out if you'd like to hear more. 

I work at an investment advisory firm in Denver and we help clients invest in Kansas City, MO and Grand Rapids, MI. 

We do this by having our realtors there send us detailed video walkthroughs of the properties. This system has worked well for us. I'd call around or look on BP for realtors in those markets and see if you can have them go walk the propy and represent your offers. 

Hey Gary,

Sounds complex. Sorry to hear this.

I work at a real estate investment advisory firm in Denver. Most of our clients are coming from complicated and pain in the behind properties and are just looking for some passive cash flow and growth. We have a menu of alternative investments that give out anywhere from 10-15% annualized cash flow, paid monthly, and about 15-25% IRRs upon sale. We also offer DSTs which are 1031-exchangeable syndications, like alts but they qualify for an exchange. Feel free to reach out if interested. 

Hey Peter,

I work at a real estate investment advisory firm in Denver. Many of our clients have inherited property and are looking for advice on how to get the highest return. Honestly, we see the highest both cash flow and appreciation returns in alternative investments. For example, we'd have a client that inherited a home sell the home and invest in a student housing fund and become a partial owner in that. The sponsor of the fund pays out a 10% average annual return, let's say, and then returns capital after a couple years and realizes a 15-25% IRR upon sale.

Feel free to reach out if you want to hear more. 

I find that anything I ask it, even using poor grammar, it works. You can tell it what to be. Ie - "You are a mentor who helps people with sales", will cater its response towards what you're looking for. 

Hey Kris,

I work at a real estate investment firm in Denver that specializes in helping clients invest in DSTs and alternative investments. DSTs are a 1031-exchangeable syndication in case you are not familiar with the term.

We often find that clients with this amount of equity will get higher returns being partial owners in an institutional real estate fund, one that owns a student housing building, for example, and lets investors purchase pieces of that asset. 

There is a lot of headache with rentals when using less capital and especially with a larger investment like $200k. Feel free to reach out. 

Hey Chinyere,

I work at a real estate investment advisory firm that specializes in helping clients invest in passive syndications. Many of the syndications we have on our platform are from sponsors that specialize in value-added self storage deals. They'll acquire a mom-and-pop owned property that is managed inefficiently and they'll invest in some relatively cheap upgrades to bump rents.  

These self storage deals average about 10% annualized cash flow, paid monthly, and average about a 15-25% IRR with about a 2-5 year hold period.

They are only open to accredited investors, but if you're interested in hearing more about these feel free to reach out. 

Hey Sandy,

I am not licensed to give personal investment advice, however I did notice that you mentioned you are looking for passive cash flow. 

I work at a real estate investment advisory firm in Denver that specializes in helping clients 1031-exchange into DSTs (Delaware Statutory Trust, a syndication that is exchangeable), and alternative investments (syndications that are not 1031 exchangeable and generally provide higher returns than DSTs). 

Our client base generally sees more performance from DSTs and alts than their 'passive' real estate properties that turned out to require far more active management than they anticipated. 

We generally see alts at about 10-15% annual cash flow, paid monthly. About 10-25% IRRs on those. About 2-5 year hold times.

DST cash flow is a bit lower at around 3-5% annualized, but the caveat there is that they are exchangeable.

Feel free to reach out with any questions.

We really like Missouri and Michigan at my company. Kansas City (MO side) has some really great appreciation prospects with some rougher urban areas starting to see a lot of capital coming in. 

Knowing historical cap rates for a market would be helpful although sometimes cap rates on single family homes can detach from the rest of the market if there is such demand for an area that people will pay anything to live there regardless of fair market value. Comps are useful. Hard to tell with the recent surge in home values in the recent years...
