New construction, fully decked out on the design and amenities. purchase price 785K, 40K in seller credits, 120-140k gross rental projections What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Buy and holds is the key to true wealth with all the benefits of depreciation, appreciation, loan pay down by your tenants, leveraging the equity, cash-flow etc etc, but it often times isn't the active income that pays the bills until you build up a portfolio and even then there's the tenant management or managing your property managers.That's why I'm involved in all 3.

I am seeking recommendations on how to network with investors and find those who may be interested in coming on as a joint venture/partner.

Now if you could prove they were purposely steering qualified candidates to other units, or failing to market the unit at all, those would possibly be acts of fraud or gross negligence, which can be litigated. 

Therefore one of the most undervalued skills is the ability to continue to earn income independent of the real estate performance as you scale until the real estate alone becomes sustainable.
