Setting them up to do well.

My client's have been happy with the draw process and response times as well.

Another option is to look into some funds as well that allow smaller investments. some are anywhere from 500-$10,000 minimums and accept non accredited investors (through regulation a+).If you ran numbers of a loan paying p&i at 10% but ot being able to reinvest the principal payments you realize how low your returns actually are. so yes notes are great but also understand that idle money for any investment is not fun.

@Brett SiegelWelcome to the community and be ready for a huge amount of information at your finger tips.

There's currently a website set up to get information from customers that have had this contract "sleight of hand" done to them. 

I have been looking at sf homes with comparable SqFt to one of the units, as well as the units combined to try and get a feel for what this is worth.

After much research, I am interested in any insight or information on Clarksville Tennessee.

As explained above, income from the financed portion of the property in an IRA would be taxed as well, but you can deduct related expenses, including depreciation, to minimize this tax liability; that is why I recommend a discussion with a tax expert to understand what your numbers would look like.Hope this helps!  

. #4 should come from a solid agent referral as well

If that's the case, you might as well just pay them.
