For many investors, the appeal of real estate is clear—steady income, long-term growth, and strong tax advantages. But the idea of being a landlord—chasing tenants, handling repairs, or worrying about vacancies—can be overwhelming. That’s where passive investing comes in.

In a passive real estate investment, you provide the capital, and experienced operators handle the rest. They identify opportunities, secure financing, manage renovations, and oversee day-to-day operations. You receive regular updates and distributions while staying out of the management grind.

A common question is whether you need to be an accredited investor. Most offerings are structured for accredited investors—those with higher income or net worth thresholds—but some opportunities may also be available to sophisticated investors with relevant experience.

Another frequent question is how investors get paid. Typically, distributions are made quarterly from the property’s rental income. On top of that, investors share in appreciation when the property is refinanced or sold. For many, the combination of cash flow and equity growth is what makes real estate so compelling.

Finally, taxes are often a concern. Investors receive a K-1 tax form each year, showing their share of the property’s income and expenses. Thanks to depreciation, many investors report paper losses that offset taxable income, even while they’re receiving cash flow.

What this means for you is simple: passive investing in multifamily real estate is a way to enjoy the benefits of property ownership without the responsibilities of being a landlord. It’s your capital at work—backed by professional management and a proven asset class.
