The Alternative Investor's Guide
A Plain-English Look at Rental Property, Self-Storage, Mobile Homes, Partnerships, and the Structures Behind Them
The other side of the menu.
The rental house down the street. The storage facility off the highway. The mobile home park somebody's cousin bought. The deal a guy at church is raising money for. Most investing books stop before any of it. This one is a tour of the other side of the menu: what each of these actually is, how someone owns it, what it costs, and what can go wrong.
Plus the structures that come with them: LLCs, limited partnerships, family partnerships and trusts, in plain language and without the seminar version. Every figure is dated and sourced, and several widely repeated claims are corrected.
Inside
- What "alternative" actually means, and what alternatives trade away
- Rental property, self-storage, and manufactured housing, described rather than sold
- When an investment is a security, and why that matters
- LLCs, partnerships, family partnerships, and trusts at a high level
- Due diligence, and how to read a sales pitch
- A "Before You Act" box at the end of every chapter with that chapter's cautions
