Plus he took the time to go over all options with me instead of simplifying things and he has investment properties himself.

In a super simplified way I look at crowdfunding very similar to a RIET you would buy on a stock market.

@Josh E.That certainly simplifies the calculation a bit.

I advise you to simplify, not complicate. 

If your tenants are incapable of reading a lease and determining when rent is due or who mows the grass, you may want to find better tenants or simplify your language.I currently spend 5-10 minutes collecting proof of utilities and payment, reviewing the lease, and handing them the keys.

I know it sounds over simplified, but it's true.
