I even paid for a background check on the company along with researching all online reviews.

I did some research first to see if they are even legitimate and what their reviews are like.

@Mario Morales - Personally, I would do some research in your target market and search (even it on zillow) for 2-4 family properties and see what agent(s) seem to transact the most in that space.

I want happy campers in my network - you've helped reiterate any deal can be good at the right purchase price.Huh, well, that is a kudos on your level of research or you've got some serious luck on your side because as chance has it I have experience working both with organizations similar to what you described and in leasing by the room. 

My business partners and I are looking into it but I want to do my research. 

How do I research or find sales comps from previous years, for example 2017-2018?

What research have you done on this company?

Is there more research/books in this DST aspect but written by an experienced investor (not from marketing sell side) ??

I just stumbled upon it online and I’m trying to research it myself. 

We’ve done our research.
