:Sorry but you have a very skewed perception of this. 

I would try two separate campaigns...1 - send letters that show you are sophisticated buyer, include a toll free # and a website and a logo.2 - send a very basic, nonthreatening, and unsophisticated letter with just your name, address and phone number.  

The (b) allow Accredited (rich) and (up to 35) Sophisticated (knowledgeable) investors (the law protects the poor and stupid, preventing them from taking risks in PPMs) who are known by the Sponsor before the deal. 

@Alex SpahmanSave $50k & do a syndication as a sophisticated investor.

This could be a larger or smaller outfit but they will be experienced, sophisticated and qualified for the project they are contemplating.  

All MF participants should be sophisticated about how it all works.  

@Don Spafford There are great deals for sophisticated investors like you said, but you have to know the sponsor.

You must be sophisticated (knowledgeable) or Accredited (rich).  

What you are doing is much more sophisticated than flipping houses.
