Due Diligence on Mortgage Note Advisors

[Michael McLoughlin]

Hi everyone. I'm a new member and just want to say that this site has been extremely helpful for my learning process.

The past week or so I've been doing some research on mortgage note and syndicate investing. For those that have some knowledge and background, what are the best ways to perform your due diligence on your note/syndicate investment advisor/strategist? What's on your checklist?

BTW I know this doesn't replace looking into the details of the property; neighborhood, any tax liens, property insurance up to date, mortgage payment history, borrower's situation, etc.

Thanks!
