I’ve gone to the alderman, I’ve reached out to a news reporter.

We perform a Due Diligence Report that spells out all major items that could affect the project success.

Quote from @Paul Azad: Real Estate math is annoyingly confusing as syndicators like to use all sorts of different numbers from MOICs to IRRs to AAR-average annual returns to anything else they can come up with to beneficially inflate their numbers for marketing purposes and to avoid the only metric used when investing in all other asset classes, the CAGR- compound annual growth rate, but it's easy to convert, like pounds to kilograms.Here you have 100% in 5 years or 20% AAR, or 2.0 MOIC, you take the MOIC or add 100 to the total return 100%+100% = 200% = 2.0, then you do an exponential equation (x to the Y) with x=2.0 and Y= 1/time in years, so 2 to the 0.2 which is 14.87% that's your CAGR {calculator will have an x to the y button for ease, 2 x/y .2}for example, sp500 just returned 254% over last 10 years, so add 100 so MOIC = 3.54, then to the 0.1 for 1/10 years and CAGR is 13.47%now you can compare returns from syndications to buying VOO or QQQ etc We had a third party track record verification report done and the company who does these (do them alot for mutual funds etc) was asking some of the most basic questions that I thought were no brainers - so I asked - "what are the other ways to calculate these things"?

You're definitely not alone—several Chicago landlords have reported similar issues after getting new meters installed.

It could also be the result of job loss, career switch, free lance work, self employment, spouse wanting to stay home with newborn, pay reduction, or inability to sell existing home, moving job locations, or any other “life circumstances”.After thinking about it, my opinion on the “ethics” of entering a lease option as an investor with a homeowner/consumer rests on two issues.  

As of Friday morning, FinCEN has confirmed that businesses are NOT required to file BOI reports while a court injunction remains in place.

Create a methodology which uses this technique or strategy in 10 X the number of situations where it’s appropriate, and only report the few successes, never acknowledging the failures or the risks3.

if you go about the process correctly, you can break free without liability.
