Hoping to connect and gain further knowledge.

I would generally stay away from this model - something where maybe they do this through some sort of equity partnership where they are sharing the gains/risk from the deal while you are doing the bulk of the dirty work

For context, he produces a lot of content about passive investing, and advises LPs on existing and future investments.

Thanks for jumping into this @Jay Hinrichs- My CPA assures me that by retaining title (not transferring it to the partnership) I can enjoy cap gains on the land profits portion.- All the costs you list are in the $2M. 

Hey mate,Sorry to hear about your troubles.I've been offering "true" turnkey properties for 10+ years now and have many scars to prove it.There has been and still is a huge stigma surrounding the industry and rightly so.The very best rated in the industry sometimes get blasted on the forum.Like with any business that has stood the test of time, we have had our fair share of successes and failures.We have done very well for many investors and could have performed better for others.Many times, we are to blame and other times it was the investors fault IMO.One thing I have always claimed is that we don't steal, cheat or lie and my team and myself work very hard and always make decisions with investors best interest at heart.Personally, I believe that folks that work hard and do their best shouldn't be crucified for an honest mistake when it happens.But, I guess others aren't as reasonable when it comes to such situations and I don't judge them for it.I take the punch on the chin and still continue doing my best.Over the years, I have made millions and lost millions but only blame myself when I loose.Not others.Also, I've always preached to start slow and only use cash which has cost my business 90% in sales volume.I just don't believe that investors should use leverage when first starting to build their portfolio.Reverse engineer and base all real estate, business and even life decisions from a risk analysis worst case scenario standpoint.If you believe that you can absorb a worst case scenario outcome, then pursue the opportunity.Build a strong foundation with cash owned properties and gain experience first."

I give them free access as part of my 10 user account which you have done a great job of securing those accounts so each user cannot gain access to the other users account information. 

Nothing is ever truly passive in real estate no matter which property manager you select.

We had hoped that that would still be a value add for us to gain back some time for scaling our business.

Buy and hold in Hawaii doesn't usually pan out unless you're willing to go negative monthly (often considerably) to maybe gain some appreciation over time.

When I investigated, someone else had gained access to it and created an ad campaign.
