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.

Hopefully, you find it helpful and qualifies us to assist you with your goals:)---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

What bank or credit union would you recommend?

Hello Mason.I am looking to invest in the Knoxville area in the near future and would be interested in any recommendations you may have. 

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I always recommend speaking with a lender or two before you start deal hunting.

I highly recommend them to handle all the business structuring.
