Who is going to want to invest in a scheme of diminishing returns?

Investors in these type deals look for say 12 - 14% annualized return.  

I plan to continue to invest in a mix of both RE syndication and our own rental properties going forward depending on what makes the most sense and offers the best returns. 

Some considerations (in no particular order) are: What return on your equity are you currently getting?

Key Deal Points:Loan Amount: $88,000Lien Position: 1st position Purchase Price: $120,000Appraised Value: $250,000Interest Rate/Return: 11% annual returnTerm: 5-year balloon (meaning the entire principal and interest must be paid at the end of the term)LTV ratio: 35.2%---Licensed Lending company for contractsRMLO package completed on buyersServicing company for payment

I can’t imagine the returns you would have to generate. 22% federal tax, plus 8% state tax, plus 10% penalty.

If you have a 10% interest rate on a car loan, then paying that off would give you a risk free 10% rate of return.  

You could put in a range of numbers for purchase price and closing costs, renovation expenses, and expected returns and you could very quickly get a range of projected return on investments (although an excel spreadsheet could easily do this as well), but I'm sure as technology develops we will see even more sophistication in AI's ability to assist in deal analyzing.

What is the cash flow/ cash on cash return. 

We can only hope future clients get their expected return.
