This my friends on BP is just the reality of Real Estate you have two basic methods One mom and pop keep their day jobs and start buying long term hold rentals as they can afford them and if they like it they keep at it..Two you jump in the game and try to make money transactionally IE RE Broker  Flipper Wholesaler MLO  leasing agent etc etc.. this also is a long term ramp.. what the Guru programs attract generally speaking is those that get excited think they can somehow buy a program ( any program pick one) and its going to jump start them to this mythical financial freedom everyone talks about..

Believe me, the longer you hold the more your expenses will grow.

If you're investing in real estate, ask yourself can you hold this a minimum of 8 years, ideally 12, optimally north of 20?

I would never do sub to for the purpose of holding long term rentals  ( at least personally) .

How long is the LP investor hold? 

Run the calculations on the expense of doing a refi at a slightly reduced rate vs. keeping the current loan for whatever period of time you think you will hold this house.

The DST sponsor takes about 2% on the front end as well.The hold period is generally 2-7 years.

As a lender I can tell you that argument holds no water.
