I think @Leslie Pappas brings up some good points, lots of regulations to consider when building a syndicate. 

@Eli Freedman if you decide to take that course be sure to let us know what you think!

Agree with @Leslie Pappas, investing in DSTs is a great way to start and it's truly passive. I've been doing A LOT of research the past several months and found there are benefits of DSTs that for me beat out other REI alternatives.

Hi @Bob Malecki, would you recommend this symposium for a newbie like myself?

Even though I'm looking to invest passively (in a note fund or jointly with a manager/advisor), I am interested in learning more about the business, just for my own risk protection. Maybe I just answered my own question ;-)

Will do @Clyde Brinegar 

@Ed Gray, thanks for sharing!

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!

Hi @Adam Bontrager, which TRUE turnkey provider would you recommend?

Will do @Paul Timmins, thanks for the info.

Appreciate the warm welcome. Spent the morning going through several threads and learning a lot so far .

Thanks @Marlon Wilson!

Appreciate the info @Dan H., we're actually traveling this Saturday but look forward to connecting at future meet-ups.

Thanks for the welcome @Kevin Fox and @Mark Nolan.

Kevin, I'd definitely be interested in attending the meet-up, I'll email you now.

Hi everyone, my name is Michael and I'm a buy and hold real estate investor in San Diego. Currently have three properties in three different states. My wife and I are looking to get more serious with our real estate business and achieve solid growth in the next several years. Our goals are mostly cash flow right now.

I'm looking to learn more about different investment strategies, how to identify good properties, how other investors structure their asset protection (LLCs vs Trusts vs Umbrella Insurance) and stay updated on trends in the market.
