He’s not a pushy salesman, and I’ve got a business partner who has worked with him for the last 10 years without any issues.As for your situation, I wouldn’t say it sounds like a Ponzi scheme, but I’d strongly recommend meeting with the fund sponsor in person and asking as many questions as you can.

It creates far more visibility into the company's operations, their investment decisions, etc.And lastly, you get to the overall ability of the sponsors.  

Fannie Mae (the Federal National Mortgage Association) and Freddie Mac (the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) are two government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs), established in 1938 and 1970, respectively.

I have sold all but one of my personal investment properties and decided to invest with others in passive deals with sponsors of larger apartment complex's, trailer parks and others.

The THING they seem to not be taking into account is that the sponsor is responsible for one half of any losses.  

We set up our CPA, LLC, website, marketing plat forms (social media), investor (sponsors) list, I have an operation manager, acquisition manager, and myself leading the charge.

Great weather and very low crime rate.I am humbly looking for seasoned syndicators and sponsors to  advice or team up with me on this new venture.

I don't get a great taste or feeling about the MHP sponsors mentioned based on this.

So I start with the sponsor first.

With your experience and possible skillset, perhaps finding a company to sponsor you for a green card may be a better option?
