At that point they are an owner and could help direct and manage the asset (safeguarding the capital they contributed) while potentially getting a larger payoff for taking on the higher risk. 

can be overwhelming because they include things like a "Monte Carlo Simulation" or "Sensitivity Analyses"... just get a grasp of the fundamentals like cap rates etc. and go from there.3.

It is a literal cost to the lender - and most of the loan documents I’ve seen (done professionally) say that a borrower will repay fees incurred by the lender to safeguard the property.

Obviously there are some safe guards and due diligence to it - but with that amount of capital it would be easy to get $4k to $5k a month coming in routinely - auto debited to your bank account.

I would like to build a tool that will find properties that fit my criteria in a given region, then return some of the profitability metrics, sensitivity analysis, and so forth to help me quickly find suitable investment opportunities and return that into a nice report.

When you're using FHA, you're sensitive to every dollar that goes towards expenses.

In my case, in South Carolina, it seems like the cost would be the same, and this is not especially time-sensitive. 

I'm looking forward to choosing my next tenant and will of course put into place safeguards for the future.

While passives still should do their due diligence, the fact that these safeguards are in place does provide some degree of assurance that some minimum standards are being met.Ultimately, it's a question of value: Is access to the network, the education, the mentoring worth it to you?
