I could easily create a profile, market a property I do not own or even have access to, and collect payments for months before the first guest would show up and discover the house is actually occupied by an 87-year-old homeowner.

When you find deals cheap, you have more options: you can wholesale for a quick few bucks, fix up and refinance for a rental or rehab and sell to make the bigger kinda quick bucks.Your profile says that you are getting your masters in Business.

Ask about the tenant profile (market rate or govt assistance, young, old, kids, single, common employers, etc).

Also, my company invests in apartment syndications, but the profile only allowed me to pick real estate services, and that is significantly different than what we do and I don't see how to change this, and nothing pops up in the help.

I looked at your profile and it seems like you acquired that property for a very very reasonable price point...I'll shoot you a PM. 

Please start by uploading your picture on your profile so you can get a better response from experience folks.I am a local investor and Realtor, let's connect and see how I can help.Goodluck

Hmmm, your profile says you joined BiggerPockets in 2008.

@Jeff S. in your profile it says "happy to not be leveraged these days".

These products are based on experience and less on the rest but you will be able to present a strong borrower profile and that will help you. 

I looked at your profile and some of your recent posts mention inheriting property and then transferring into an LLC, while holding the mortgages in your fathers name.
