To add additional context,  I would personally be more willing to sign my name onto a $6M mortgage collateralized against a $10M asset in an "A" market that has historically low vacancy rates, no deferred maintenance and is located in a stable market with a rent roll that covers the debt services and operating expenses with reasonable cushion for reserves than sign my name on a $90,000 loan collateralized against a $100K property in a C/D unstable market with high vacancy rates and where capex will disproportionately impact operations.

What should I be doing during the inspection period, especially operating remotely? 

I’d love to hear about the red flags to watch out for, so I can hopefully avoid the same headaches.For me, clear communication and transparency upfront are key, but I know not every lender operates that way.

Going into a 50 unit plus deal without any sort of experience is like telling yourself you can go to the Olympic games for wrestling after three training sessions.

You don't want to bring over poor operations to STR because you will also fail there.

Great guy and excellent operator with great results.

If you want someone to hold your hand into investing maybe his training is worth considering.

I include all of that in my person to person training. 

Other syndiicators are not good operators. 

They may seem attractive on a spreadsheet if you are chasing cash flow, but the fundamentals are not as strong and these properties are  disproportionately impacted by capex and operating costs.
