God knows what they think those hand-scrawled letters saying how they're innocuous ma-and-pa investors and day-glo signs on the public right-of-way are supposed to convince people of.However, the lack of disclosure and taking advantage of some owners really kinda goes against the grain on the Realtor Code of Ethics doesn't it?

Food for thought.

I’ve given food to hungry people, I’ve given the shirt off my back to an old naked woman, I've bought shoes for kids, built a school for aboriginal tribal families in the mountains, and handed out toothbrushes.  

No list no set of characteristics and predict motivation because motivation is based on emotion, NOT DATA.If you were a lion in the dry savannah of Africa and you wanted food.

If I understand you correctly, they can't even access their food or clothing, so this will be a big impact on them for a period of time.

The only food I have delivered is pizza, and even that is rare.

Andrew, honestly just keep going.You'll be worth 8 figures soon.Not many people love their jobs, but it puts food on the table and you are clearly good at it if you've been doing it so long.Use some extra income to start getting into RE investing.If you get a seller to carry 15% in 2nd position, you just need a 10% down payment.Its tough to do but everything in life takes sacrifice.

Just some food for thought, no two people have the exact same situation when considering this decision so do what you are most comfortable with.

So, while at the end of the day, you can do anything you want that your investors/lenders agree too, but it very much against the grain for you to both borrow money from them, keep all the upside, charge a fee to your lenders.  

Residents can pay $1600 for rent and be in nicer areas of Memphis with better food, school, job, and transportation options.
