My tenant of 1 year just moved out recently (work transfer), but during the move-out inspection we found that one of the 10X10 bedroom has all four side of the wall covered in screw holes from the time they used it as a computer room (I believe the holes were from the sound deadening foam that they used to attach to the wall) So I was wondering what would seem to be a fairly reasonable cost to be deducted from their Security Deposit for the excessive holes and needing to repaint.

I am extremely interested in learning everything that I can about real estate.

These groups "find the deal" by raising money for other operator/syndicators, they market themselves (often with tag lines on LinkedIn of: I help busy (fill in industry) professionals create passive income through real estate),  They raise money from their own network and funnel it into a syndicators deal for part of the GP ownership.
