Although I am not sure how to enforce this one, there should be active, on-going communication from the the borrower to the lender .... as one would expect from a GP/Operator to the LPs in a private equity syndication. 

Your best bet would be to hire a good property manager who screens well and knows what they're doing and you should be able to get good income over a few years. 

Personally, I would put most of it in passive real estate syndications - but I am a full time passive investor so that makes the most sense for me.The first decision you would need to make from my perspective is whether you want to invest passively or actively (your profile says rental property investor, so I would assume you are currently an active investor). 

I imagine you'll have the same issue with the unpermitted kitchenetteIf you can rent the property as a MTR then listing on Furnished Finder will probably be your best bet.

My goal is to build an active group of investors who are eager to collaborate, share ideas, and work together.

Not to hijack the thread, but I'm also curious... to those that have had success in this area, are you the ones actively answering the calls / emails from these mailers, or do you have a team in place to respond to the leads?

Recently a prominent marketer of Cleveland rental properties and property management services named Bob Prisco was exposed for being less than honest in his business dealings and posting activity here on BiggerPockets.

Looking forward to being an active part of this community and learning from all of you!

I'm looking to connect with Huntsville locals who can assist or point me in the right direction. go to the local FB groups I bet there everywhere 

Your best bet is to start a relationship with a local lender so you can get on the same page about what you need and when.
