The initial goals of the workshops would be to present information to open them into the concepts of using retirement money for investing, and to provide them with the sites of the companies that are admins/custodians of these type accounts, so they can do additional research, and to also point them to the SEC info.In holding these workshops, I'm looking at establishing “Pre-Existing” and “Substantive” Relationships; realizing that this is a long-term strategy.With the idea of it being passive for the investors, my thought is for them to invest in my LLC, and then the LLC buys assets, which I'm thinking to focus on commercial; possibly businesses with strong cash-flow that are also selling real estate as part of the transaction.I'm also thinking, in the workshops, to possibly include those with equity in their properties.

They have excellent credit and their goal is to get about $200k in capital to deploy for other investments.

So quick low down on my goals.

My wife and I will be renting out our first property with a goal of occupancy by October 1. 

As a landlord you can't act as a charity, you have your own financial obligations to your lender, your investors, your reserve funds, your other tenants, your family, your goals for growing the business, your own health issues, etc. 

But I'm still here, I saved enough of what I had worked to build, and I've got goals I'm working on taking down.

There’s a million ways to get to your goal.

I bought my first house in February 2017 for $185k with the goal of buying at every duty station during my career.

If I expect a 75% LTV, then, I target 70% of ARV as my All-in Cost goal.
