Let the DST pay the Registered Rep the upfront 5 or 6%, but be sure you are aligning with a rep that truly cares about your business and follows the investment and keeps you informed through its life.

Remember, they can always refer themselves😊Now, make it a goal to call at least 5-10 of these people EVERY day and ask a MAX OF THREE off the list below of who do they know that:Just inherited a homeHad a loved one pass awayIs behind on their mortgage or tax paymentsHas a relative that can’t take care of their house anymoreHas a house they’re having trouble sellingIs facing bankruptcyKnows a probate attorneyKnows a bankruptcy attorneyetcWhy only three off the list per contact?

Sometimes I come up a small amount , or tell them to leave what they dont want I will take care of it .

Am here just to let folks know of my experience so others are careful when they get into this.

These days as you mention with STR almost everything can be handled remotely...cleaning, painting, locksmith, yard care, even drive by pictures of the house occasionally or internal pictures too.

No click-bait website cares if you do or don't actually close, they care that you are clicking and generating advertising revenue.

Be careful when you select entity types.A pass-through entity in the United States, such as an LLC, may not hold the same characteristics in Canada.What market are you looking to invest in?
