I think this domain has a lot more sophisticated buyers, aka private equity and other banks.Originate, package/securitize, CLO/CDO, re-sell the note on public market.

You develop excellent perception of who are the dud buyers and sellers to work with that will take all your time, make your life miserable and difficult, and give you a low return on your effort.The ones that are great to work with treat them like gold.

i) Present the deal to a more sophisticated/seasoned investor and ask for a "finders" fee?

Yes, I can say that some times I've wondered if it's my own perception. 

@Elliot Marszalek that is incorrect. 506(b) syndications can accept non-accredited sophisticated investors.

I had to have a cushion for maintenance and vacancy built up.Hard Money Lenders on FlipsWith track record, more sophisticated lenders would take a chance on me.Refinance at BankEUREKA!

The more you learn and more sophisticated you get, you'll start to calculate your offer price based on the cash flows and cash on cash returns, and not on a cap rate. 

With B you can have unlimited Accredited Investors and up to 35 Sophisticated.

Your POA will allow you to deposit that check depending on the sophistication of the bank. 

All non-accredited investors, either alone or with a purchaser representative, must be sophisticated—that is, they must have sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to make them capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment.506c: a company can broadly solicit and generally advertise the offering and still be deemed to be in compliance with the exemption’s requirements if: The investors in the offering are all accredited investors; andThe company takes reasonable steps to verify that the investors are accredited investors, which could include reviewing documentation, such as W-2s, tax returns, bank and brokerage statements, credit reports and the like.Again, it would be wise to check the SEC guidelines, but sponsors have the ultimate responsibility to ensure their investors meet the requirements.
