Clearfund, I am a passive investor so am open to all opportunities that are low risk, cash flowing, and stable. I accept the lower returns profile. One of the problems many fixed incomers are facing is months and months of flat rates, and uncertainty. REITS are part of an investment portfolio, and “so is Real Estate” I hear you say, but my view is actual bricks and mortar are an important tangible aspect of any portfolio. What are llc/limited partnerships for single properties, and sole ownership? Why are TICs only used for exchanges?
