I have also told my grandma who was getting 5% return in a CD that I would give her 6% if she lent me the money for the down payment on the last property I purchased. 

When I returned she was ready for our first house hack. 

I think his non -accredited investors can invest 5k.. look into Grants  program.. let me know what you all think 

these investors are expecting returns far higher than 10%.  

Buyer may elect to treat this Contract as canceled, in which case all Earnest Money received hereunder will be returned to Buyer and Buyer may recover such damages as may be proper.

Great opportunities for +30% annual return on investment

As for making "big returns", that is deal dependent.

I've narrowed down the best return for my money in this market to a 2 bed/2 bath (with top tier amenities) - about 500 total 2/2 listings.I'm finding myself a bit stuck when analyzing why certain properties are making so much higher than the average listings when they seem to have very similar locations, amenities, style, flow of home, beds/# of people they sleep, reviews, number of reviews, etc.

If you go with the partnership route1) You need to manage the money going in and out of the business bank account.2) File a partnership return and be responsible for issuing K-1's3) make distributions to you and your partner for cash flow that you receiveYou will likely spend many hours on a nice gesture.I may want to consider instead to give a christmas gift or a bonus for early completion of projects.

Really interested in investing in this market and would accept a relatively low return (or even a break even scenario because i believe in continued appreciation potential here).
