I had $240K sitting in a money market at 4.8%. Frame found me a Blue Ridge deal that's grossing $47K a year. The math wasn't complicated once I ran it through their calculator.

I've done index funds for 12 years. This is the first investment I've ever sent a photo of to my parents. The cabin books itself. The returns show up in my account every month.

Post-divorce, I needed something tangible. Something I could drive to. Frame found me a Catskills property that's appreciated $90K and generates $5,400/month gross. It's the best settlement outcome I didn't plan for.
