See this is what I have been warning people of in MFH, and talking with many about, that there is these ticking bombs out there of operators who never really were professionals, and it was a disaster in process. 

Quote from @Michael Hence: Thought I would share my experience with baselane as a warning to others. 

So I'm listing a house (PersRes) and the listing site I use has a new disclaimer/warning on many of it's pages.

Advising RE investing should come with a stern talk about the risks, stress, and commitment. 

Everyone is happy when their investment goes up, but as the only financial warning says, "past performance does not predict future returns". 

Quote from @Michael Stern: Hi - I am new to the group but not new to Van Gundy  :(Does anyone know or have any detailed information from the SEC investigation? 

Sorry for the bad experience and thanks for warning the rest of BP!

I would warn however that if you are thinking of signing up you should make sure you have money not just for the class but to actually purchase a note(s) as well.For the Non Performing side I would recommend having 40-50k set aside to invest so you can build a portfolio, different loans will work out over differant time frames and you don't want to put all your eggs in one basket.

While the “debt to equity” practice may not meet MY PERSONAL definition of “fair”, in and of itself it is not illegal, unethical, or fraudulent.Truth is if the posters warning about the subject have accurately portrayed the specific situation, there is cause for concern.  

We even made little signs to go up on the. door and on the kitchen to warn about fraud since it is more likely with self-guided showings.
