They have a formula that works and provides them the rate of return that makes it worth it so, don't feel like you'll just negotiate them out of their shoes like you're Trump. 

This control over contact, is apart of manipulation and abuse.I may be a kind person, I do consider myself to be somewhat of an empath as when I am dealing with confrontation or a disagreement I always try to put myself in the other persons shoes. 

it is definitely a viable strategy, but many people assume they will automatically be successful solely because... you must make money buying at those attractive lower price points!

Standard disclaimer I’m not a Financial Advisor and this isn’t financial advice.I’d buy REITs in your shoes.

You make a great point—focusing solely on the 1% rule can be limiting, especially for long-term investors.

A syndicator cannot have as sole role raising money.  

If I was in these investors shoes thats what I would be working towards.

@Maynhia Stott If your focus on high interest rate is solely for getting a higher rate of return on redemption, then I think you would want to emphasize penalty states because many of the states you mentioned, like Maryland, would only yield that high interest after the 12th month.

I live solely off my rental income so it's definitely not a myth ;)

Not only is it the right thing to do to help them get their legal ducks in a row about knowing SPECIFICALLY what the seller did wrong, ie did not disclose and can prove it was done for the sole purpose of deception to make the sale "smoother" but it can help you look good and have you learn how to avoid in the future (as you say "tighten up your due diligence")It sucks when agents "help" 1st time or largely inexperienced buyers long enough to make the sale and get their commission but then peace out on the client when something like this happens.It It seems like you are attempting to do the right thing which is admirable bc at the end of the day, the court system is the closest thing to a "business police" that ppl can get.
