I dont know anything about this company but it sure sounds like and advance fee scheme.

Thank you in advance.

Talk to house hackers because that would be a great way to start, but you are also advanced with money so you may find smarter options that act more like index funds (syndications).Yes I was actually looking at syndications that was going to be my next research topic that seems extremely interesting and powerful syndication seems like an awesome way to diversify without getting my hands dirty necessarily.

Whether it’s the proper legal route or unconventional methods, I’m open to any suggestions to help me get rid of these tenants sooner.Thank you in advance.

I know the production homebuilders sell lots way in advance, but I think that's a whole different ballgame. 

I've noticed the typical Silicon Valley hard-core tech startups have a disproportionately high male to female employee ratio, a large portion of engineers hold advanced degrees from big-name tech schools like Stanford and MIT, the C level execs all have extensive tech background even the ones that deal with the business side, etc. checking out online reviews is actually not that straightforward and without traps. 

Thanks in advance. 

If you assign the contract get proof of funds in advance and make sure they are trust worth.

Thanks in advance.

Try to buy “blocks of time” in advance?
