Lots of options but you will want to select a sponsor with a track record and an investment you are comfortable with.Make sure to do lots of due diligence Thanks Chris, yes, I agree there are many options out there and I’m trying to find the best one for my situation, in my original post I asked about the RE syndicate companies, I would love to hear some recommendations from you guys.

While I'm intrigued by the idea of DSCR financing and hard money lenders, I feel they might be a bit too pricey and risky for me at this point.That said, I'm excited about the prospect of partnering with someone on a deal, whether it's as a minority partner bringing value through sourcing deals or as an equal partner sharing the workload.If you're on the lookout for a young, motivated investor to collaborate with on future opportunities, I'd love to chat.

I personally love Columbus Ohio and as someone who works with a lot of out of state investors - there's so many catalysts for why you should invest here.
