While it may not offer as much diversification, at least with a syndication, you can review the specific merits of that particular deal.Also, the fund operator typically has different motivations than the syndicator.

Imagine if it cost 1000 to send out 50 letters but half of them responded and half of those wanted an offer and half of those accepted an offer and half of those closed and half of those resold for a net 50k. 

I was a student they offered to sponsor a deal for and it has cost me everything, literally. 

Hey BP community,I’m looking at a short sale property in Florida and considering making an offer.

As I am exposed to the different products offered by lenders, I am trying to see how to best mesh hard/private money to be as efficient as possible.

We still do not have enough inventory to meet demand which is why we still have multiple offer situations in most parts of the metro arear. 

I'm having to offer this as a fully furnished house to be able to charge a premium on rent just to get close to the mortgage.

Cash offers would net you less.  

Those are my thoughts and the things you have to tighten up if you actually want to offer this as a service. 

Do they offer to help you collect or file a claim against them?
