What I read of the Note Offering before it was recently changed, it READILY presented as a hail-marry business strategy.

A couple of days ago, both my realtor and I called her number to follow up and the lady says the number does not belong to my tenant i.e. she's a diff person.

A couple of follow-ups so I can better understand.

I'm Maria J from New Jersey, passionate about real estate investing for a couple months now.

I've had a couple of bad actors, but all in all I've had good experiences and continue to provide this type of housing.   

I know there are successful investors there.I have a couple of great realtor/investors that work that market hard if you need great boots on the ground. 

BTW Veria - COO and Jorge (CEO) are married and at least once a week discuss who and when they are letting go.

Couple of things I would add as I am an investor and also a licensed GC(i.e. builder)  there in the area. 1) That property might have a zillow estimate of 1.9 million but its only 4,000 sq ft. 

I've been investing there for a couple of years.

And while I've only been investing out there for the last couple of years, I have yet to hear of a story where people were killed because they got caught in a cabin that went up in smoke.
