If you don’t mind a little more advice…when I’m running projections like this, I like to use the worst case scenario and if the numbers don’t work out in that scenario, I usually pass on the deal.

Here’s some context: Property 1: >$100k in EquityValue: $325kDebt: $220k @ 2.88% (30-year fixed)Property 2: >$70k in EquityValue: $325kDebt: $252k @ 3.38% (30-year fixed)Extra considerations: - I have $15-20k liquid to use for any of these deals- My current job is relatively stable, but not high-payin- Current properties in TX, living in NY, looking to invest in Mid-West (crazy, I know)- No other debt obligations besides the two mortgagesUltimate goal/timeline: Though a bit ambitious, I’d love to build up the portfolio to 10-20 units in the next two yearsI understand that any/all replies aren't financial advice; all ideas welcome for information purposes. 

If you talked to attorneys, why aren't you hiring them and following their advice? 

I am looking for some advice from someone who have had similar experience and what are the pros and cons.

I don't have much advice as now the profits are gone and it seems like the best thing to do is to get your money out the deal and move on.  

Any advice on what I should do to retrieve January’s rent? 

Consequently, it’s up to these companies themselves, not demand from investors, to set the value of their shares.Non-traded REITs own about 10% of the $2.5 trillion in real estate assets held by REITs, not counting private ones whose shares are only available to accredited investors, according to the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, a trade group.The SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, a self-regulatory organization for brokerage firms and exchange markets, issued investor notices in the mid-2010s that warned of potential risks from non-traded REITs.They include a lack of clarity as to how shares are valued, difficulties in selling shares readily, high fees often paid to managers with possible conflicts of interest, and the potential that investor cash and loan proceeds can be used to pay dividends during unprofitable periods.More recently, high-profile investment firms such as Blackstone Group and Starwood Capital Group have started their own non-traded property trusts with offers to disclose more information, charge fewer fees, and allow shares to be cashed in more frequently.
