(See SEC Publication, Filing and Amending a Form D Notice, A Compliance Guide for Small Entities and Others http://www.sec.gov/info/smallbus/secg/formdguide.htm.)So the reason not to invest is they either have no other investors, and if they did, they failed to register.Why post this?

It seems IRS Publication 527 (2023), Residential Rental Property would say it's 10% based on their example.

If you did, your name is in public view when your entity is searched via the secretary of state website.

Search their personal and company name for past or current lawsuits (public record in AZ and easily accessible through government website)3.

Hi @Keith Hoffman II,I am a Certified Public Accountant and a real estate investor/property manager with a 16-unit complex in Wheeling, WV (originally from NJ nearer to you).

I am also a Certified Public Accountant.

Honestly, I don't think people always need a CPA since that certification is for public accounting --- this isn't public accounting and GAAP. 

I'm charging $400 a week for my smallest places.Here is my totem pole for renters.Project managersEngineersElectricians, Inspectors, BoilermakersPipefitters, WeldersGeneral laborGeneral PublicScaffold builders, painters, travelling nursesThe homeless and people right out of prison.Notice I put traveling nurses below the general public and above homeless/parolees. 

Although if the first option with public grants is anything similar to dealing with any public office, that could take a while. 

(Just be sure you are near public transportation or this will be very tough to pull off.)The thing to be careful about in New York is that the law here is very, very pro-tenant.
