But let’s go a later deeper - my down payment would come out of a well performing stock portfolio.

the question is confusing to me.are you referring to taking funds from an investor and then putting it into a known syndicator's deal?

Austria, Germany, Luxembourg; these immediately come to mind as "ancient" developed areas in contrast to the "infant" that is USA, and they seem to be doing very well, very efficient, very well setup and established across the strata's. 

I would assume I am the most well known investor in the Cleveland/Akron area and I've got to ask you, what specifically do you want them to do? 

Lake Toho is known for bass fishing.

Specifically, the cost to have it corrected is now a known material fact. 

That "pipe" is known as a Line Set. 

Never did anything of any significance other than being known.

Going over maps of known repairs with contractors showed that there were a few houses where people tried to have piers installed and ran out of money before hitting stable soil, others in the hyper local area did have to go to 100+ ft.  

They know the different neighborhoods very well and understand the market.
