If I were a betting man the company is folding up and this dutch character is out there doing the guru circuit as only source of $ and idiots will pay for training from someone like this.  

We do want to settle in a little bit here while continuing to do our homework, but hope to get into something in the next 6-12 months.With the way interest rates are looking now and what little I see on public listings, I think a smaller multi-family that needs a little rehab would be the best bet. 

If not then passive investing in syndications is your best bet.

I think making it more generic and less custom is the safer bet.

You can talk to the bank about a loan; however, my bet is they will want some form of contract and scope of work and will only pay him at set milestones.

I'd bet that this note is worth more to you than to most buyers until the note is much lower LTV, but I'm a novice in this space.

I'm sure there are other similar services out there. 2) DSCR loans would probably be your best bet.

Abandon the Peurto Rico dream for now and look at more realistic/beginner friendly areas that still sport a large latin influence and strong rentals, like Florida (I've looked a little bit outside Miami..Boca Raton, Tampa, West Palm Beach, etc). 

No 8 years LOL.I already stopped listening to RIA or whatever, until they all open their sponsor track record LOLThe only advantage of having DST is really because it's just like investing to MF Class A, but the yield and cap is so volatile right now, I bet the safest DST would be the one with less than fifty percent LTV. 

My friend Dylan Marma would be a solid bet and I'd be happy to make an intro.Using leverage to scale, such as borrowing against this cash for larger down payments?
