Social media is not helping here.

Maybe they are bad communicators.Assuming you still want the place, I would do anything you want to reach out via the renal address or professional websites, but home addresses and personal social media is going too far.

My background is in Social Work, with a Master's degree.

List the property on MLS or with a trusted real estate agent, and market aggressively through social media, local advertising, and open houses to generate interest.

It's so hard to tell if anything is real anymore that is posted on FB and social media, with so many RE "gurus" looking to make a buck. 

US population growth slows and fewer new households form, which is probably not great for RE investors; and 2. the Social Security trust fund runs out.  

This is not myface or spacebook or any of those awful social media outlets where people are a**holes to each other.   

I will check those area out.I did lose the novelty on Airbnb’s after also checking out Myrtle beach as a suggestion and went straight to looking at apartment buildings.maybe I’ll come back full circle in the future.

I’m educated now, but I had no one in my circle that really knew anything until now.

The fact that you are working with a loan officer who is coaching you on committing fraud, you may want to change your circle of influence.
