so how do I start an investment group? My in-laws want to start their own investment group. and it has been put upon me to figure it out. can anyone recommend an alaskan website I can use for this research.
Welcome! Can you provide a little more detail on this group and what type of investing you will be doing. i.e. commercial, buy and flip, rentals, etc.
In laws? Go figure.
Are you talking about forming an REIT?
from wikipedia
A real estate investment trust or REIT (pronounced /ˈriːt/) is a tax designation for a corporation investing in real estate that reduces or eliminates corporate income taxes. In return, REITs are required to distribute 90% of their income, which may be taxable, into the hands of the investors. The REIT structure was designed to provide a similar structure for investment in real estate as mutual funds provide for investment in stocks
A real estate syndicate is the way in which a small group of investors pools their money to invest in property. A REIT on the other hand is a corporation which invests in real estate and has at a minimum 100 share holders.
It sounds like your in-laws want to put together a syndicate.
