Free · No account · 6 to read
Everything we publish, in one place.
Market data, diligence tools and a weekday read on what actually moved — written for people who put their own money into private real estate deals and would rather check the numbers themselves.
All of it is free, all of it is education, and none of it is an offer to invest in anything.
Accredited Investor Self-Check
Six threshold questions, no dollar figures, and an instant read on which of the routes in the SEC definition your own answers point at — including the two most people have never heard of. Education only: nothing is verified and nothing is gated.
Daily brief
Rates, prints and submarket activity, read once each weekday morning — what moved, and what it means for somebody putting money into private real estate. Every edition is on the site to read. The brief itself arrives by email: tick the email box on any request below and it starts the next morning.
MSA Scorecard
Forty metros ranked on the household fundamentals that decide whether small-bay flex and garage condo demand turns up at all — income, household formation, ownership, density. Eighteen counties scored underneath the metros, because a metro average hides its strongest ground.
The Passive Investor's Deal Checklist
Twenty-eight questions to ask a sponsor before you commit — across track record, where the money comes from, the waterfall, the debt, the assumptions and the exit — each one paired with what a good answer actually sounds like. Laid out to print and write on while you are on the phone.
The Passive Investor's Tax Playbook
Ten pages on how depreciation reaches you through a K-1, why a large loss often changes nothing on this year's return, the exceptions that change that, and what happens when the deal sells. Ends with twelve questions to take to the sponsor and to your CPA.
Sell vs 1031 vs Hold Calculator
For owners of a commercial or rental building: what selling would cost in tax today, what a 1031 exchange would defer, and what holding and catching up missed depreciation could defer instead. Three numbers side by side, an estimate to take to your CPA.
What this is
Stillinger Capital publishes research on the markets and mechanics of private real estate. We do not sell securities, we do not raise money for sponsors, and nothing here recommends a market, a project or a person.
If you ask for a report we will email it to you, and we will send the daily brief if you tick that box. One link at the bottom of any email stops all of it.
