Hey BP community,I was doing research about getting involved in real estate syndication as a passive investor and I came across a website called iintoo (link below). https://epiic.iintoo.com/?

Hello Derick, If you have not already done this, I suggest the Build Your Investing Team> menu/link at the top left of the page on Bigger Pockets and go through the process of building a team.

What entity issues the prom notes?

It's usually the member/borrower's creditworthiness that is the issue and interferes with approval, not the LLC. 

what is my next step to clear up this issue? 

My investments were all what they termed private placement and was essentially funds used for lending, buying notes and recently land trust.After MIdland sprun this on us, my spouse also has accounts, I did some research but didn't see a purpose to remove our accounts at the time.I have not been with ET long enough to give comment on them and what little "issues" occured were technical.

Are you having issues finding a lender that can do this for you?

Flat out, I realize we're friends/family, but I need this lease in place to comply with laws that require things in writing and for my protection should there ever be issues.

The main risks I would say to watch out for are any family dynamic issues that could arise as things like this could lead to issues that didn't exist previously.

They may also be able to temporarily relocate your tenant to avoid any other issues.
