However we are an accredited and trusted company.

If you're accredited, you'll see those on the major crowdfunding sites.

You can contain the legal fees by doing joint ventures (which doesn't give you syndication experience) or offerings to Accredited Investors only (who may not be the people who would invest in small-plexes or the people you know). 4.

In most cases, I'd only be allowed to sell securities to accredited investors, with a minimum of $10K investment.

If he’s accredited, he could 1031 to DSTs here in the states, defer all his taxes, and just collect a check off of passive real estate from the DSTs.

If you are an accredited investor,  I would highly reccomend this option as a foreign investor in the US.

Hi @Dustin Cook if you're an accredited investor you might consider investment into DSTs.

Here's my top 3 rankings.1) The investor is not accredited and hence does not qualify.2) The second thing is lack of liquidity or timing.3) Diversification - they may be over concentrated in an asset class or geography or both.Ironically, its rarely that they don't like the market, deal or sponsor.   

However, you should be aware that through your education process you may be qualified as an accredited investor and can get into large MF deals now.  

Many people, myself included, prefer to deal only with "accredited investors," because you encounter the fewest problems here.
