I went from barely breaking even to walking away with a very comfortable profit.This experience taught me two critical lessons:Never give up when the situation looks bleak.

(If not, then you should, IMHO)We're all in sales ultimately, and keeping potential business associates on a marketing list is our lifeline.Also, if you were "politely told" that it's not a great fit - how is this a problem? 

Before we sold it we hired a management company to reduce the burden, but even then we decided to sell and walk away. 

So yes, I guarantee we will see people selling as-is and walking away. 

Sound like some people we’ve previously “engaged” with.The second criteria is if the deal is a “fit” for syndication.  

We are looking to buy a condo in Chicago as the new rental, for a variety of reasons, but most importantly because it would rent better in the city, and it fits our desired price point (so we can allow for the rest of $$ from the sale for paying off their Oregon home and pay all, or some of the taxes on the boot). 

I ultimately invested $65 cash, $5k in legal fees, and $9.7k in operational expenses while owning the home, and walked away with $17.3k after a judgement.What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
