Bigger Pockets has some great state forums.  

Welcome to Bigger Pockets !

My name is Bronson and I'm happy to be joining the bigger pockets community.

That was three years ago-the other half of the duplex is literally on the market right now for 300k - same layout, side by side duplex.

Then this deal popped up and had the potential to solve all three.  

Money out of my pocket for a year?

So does sophisticated investor mean "everybody on the planet other than accredited investors" or are there other requirements.If i'm understanding correctly I would scour bigger pockets forums, find the people talking about syndication, contact them directly to ask if they have x of 35 slots remaining for sophisticated investors, then put in 100,000 and collect 8% a year on it.I dunno for me personal i'd rather use the 100,000 for a leveraged investment townhouse or something in the neighborhood of the new amazon HQ2.Also makes me wonder where do accredited investors go to find a directory of these offerings to jump in to?  

We also will have around 7 more SFR's within the next 8-10 years that will not require any out of pocket funds from us aside from legal fees to transfer ownership.I would like to begin focusing on flipping after summer of 2018 to build some larger cash reserves for purchasing more LTR's.

Bigger pockets is loaded with basically all the information u need and many people to connect with + help you
