.- Do be open-minded though as we have many of the above from tenants who claim we illegally evicted them (so, somehow we got a signed Write illegally?)

If was originated as owner occupied in the past and no longer is owner, if you have change of name on deed or insurance, if impound had a dispute, claims - are a couple reasons why the servicing changes.

That month he claimed to make a gross profit of $292,590.

A more accurate way to describe it is "I received no income" - because you can have deals but still have no profit if your expenses are greater than your income.If you were actively looking for deals (and can document it) - as opposed to merely planning to start later - then you file Schedule C and claim business expanses such as marketing, driving, technology and so on. 

You claim to receive no remuneration for this from the syndicates you are pitching- but only time will tell if you're the only guy not getting paid to raise money for others.

Chat with them, and ask them where they find their guest (Airbnb, Furnished Finders, Insurance claims, etc).

I don't see how they could, since things happen... but again, granted there is no guarantee, these companies are claiming such high averages and they have such huge portfolios and good reputations, so it makes me wonder.
