Has anyone tried “Morris invest”?
Apparently they have real estate available and help you with everything else. Loans, property management, etc etc. I was wondering if anyone else knows or dealt with them. Owned by a couple and they even have a YouTube channel.

something I say all the time: "Trust everyone, just never put yourself in a position to need it"
You shouldn't' be trusting people so much that you're relying on them to keep your best interest in mind. Sure that would be nice, but that's not how the world works, and it's not a prudent way to deploy capital.
If you want to be a passive investor, go really passive like REIT or stock market. If you want to be an active investor, then be involved enough in the deal that you're reasonably be sure of the inner workings and all interested parties. You should not trust strangers, but that doesn't' mean all strangers are bad. In fact my opinion is that most people want to do the right thing, but you have to spend a lot of time vetting them to be sure they will.
Keep at it, great people are around but it'll always be easier to find the charlatan.
