IMHO, the housing authority is trying to bully you.I would lay out my argument to them, with comps, and be willing to tell them to pound sand if they can’t agree to a reasonable way to get you up to market rents.
Leighann Davis Why do experienced investors JV on notes?

They then take those notes and package them with others from similar purchases and sell them along with their analysis to private investment funds.This leaves 45 notes from a package of 1,000 that three professional investment funds, doing intensive analysis by highly trained MBAs, have determined cannot yield even a minimal investment return.These are then offered to the individual investor, who according to those in the industry “with something to sell” (the leftover NPNs and/or “training”) can profit enormously by (1) making them re-performing notes or (2) foreclosing and selling the property for large profits.The pitch from those “with something to sell” is twofold: (1) “There is plenty of meat left on the bone” (actual quote), and (2) if you send the borrower a complete package of all docs, weighing, say, five pounds you will “shock and awe” him into paying on the note.I highly doubt either of these claims have even a micron of validity.The parties with a financial interest in you buying into this will cite isolated instances of great success, never mentioning the all-more-frequent instances of total failure.So at the end of the day the training promoters have collected up to $30,000 per person for their NPN “mentoring”/”coaching” program, the retail asset disposer has made 50% to 100% profit on their inventory, private middlemen have turned a $2,500 investment in a note into $16,000, and my sister-in-law who purchased 5 NPNs over three years ago and has spent large amounts on attorneys, taxes, and brokers has yet to see a penny in return.To paraphrase, if you don’t know who the sucker is in any ultra-high profit promise situation, it’s you.

Matthew Rosenthal Would it be weird to ask a more experienced investor to shadow?
15 September 2018 | 2 replies
I want to have more saved for just in case expenses for life/a potential rental property but also want real time experience and I think this would be a great way to do it.Your absolutely right that real "pounding the pavement" experience is the best way to gain knowledge and I think it is a reasonable request which someone can say yes or no..however I dont think contacting random people who are investors on LinkedIn or online is the correct way to do it.
