After you've analyzed a few PPMs, I'm sure you've gleaned, as I now have, the common structural elements, and the latitude syndicators have in fulfilling what must be disclosed, etc.Since I started asking the leadership at my local REIA’s, CPA’s, fellow investors, etc. , it turns out there are a number of investors and mortgage brokers who’ve gone through the process successfully in my local DC/MD metro area, with whom I’ve been put in contact.It’s been amazing how helpful contacts are being, by just letting them know I’m moving up to the commercial syndication level of investing (as well as continuing buy and hold SFH, as a tool to build trust with private lenders, who might then feel more comfortable moving up to commercial).Best of luck.

And to get that much depth and understanding of the tax code and other stuff takes years, even decades to glean, craft, shape and deliver in a somewhat interesting way.
