I have a solid amount of capital to invest and am looking to invest remotely in the Midwest or South in places that will provide a net income and, of course, ideally also provide at least a minimal amount of appreciation, but I'm definitely leaning more toward the cash flow model given that I'm an older investor. 

If done well you could then do similar syndication models in many other states where there is a likely similar need/market?

By consistently showing that success is achievable, taking decisive action, gaining knowledge, and documenting the journey, I empower aspiring individuals to believe in their own capabilities.

I'm looking at one right now with the following (real, live situation):3.85% commission, 0% annually (unless you go through an RIA, you shouldn't be paying any fees to participate in a DST along the way; but there are operating expenses that are transparently modeled based on the assets in the Trust), disposition fee of 2% (subordinated to a full return of original investor equity outside of monthly distributions).

They have 1 slot open Monday and that if I make a decision today he can replace the unit with a brand new model then (it was a Saturday).

Any thoughts or ideas to make either model work the best (selling on contract or renting)?

With this model there's no need to do dozens of deals at a time, in fact, one deal a month can literally be worth 7 figures.

It can be a great business model, but there's a lot to understand about MTRs because the niche is broad, but there's an art to matching your property type with the right type of guest.
