I am new to REI and I have been running my numbers for multiple properties I have received from my realtor.

I told him I have not received the check and if it was sent and cashed then it was cashed fraudulently.

I asked the agent for rent roll which I have not received it yet. 

Look at zillow listings and see what are typical offerings in your area.

I would say garage door wheels are typically hard for a tenant to manipulate.

You are right, we never hear about the failures, only those that typically start out with tons of cash

The presentations typically are much better than the actual training.

With a typical investment of $50,000 to get into one deal, I decided that $4,000 was like an insurance policy, since I would surely lose more than that on one bad deal.

Trying again, I went to the City Hall, they took a copy of the check and I received a call from a City representative and I believe the same person and again, she said the same thing.
