Only violate this rule after you’ve had SIGNIFICANT personal experience with the particular syndicator. 4- if you can’t afford to lose capital invest in Vanguard Money Market Fund instead of real estate As for “calling out” syndicators who don’t want to engage with the investors whose money they accepted, and want to threaten legal action against those same investors, it would be GREAT to expose them and hopefully make it impossible for them to continue syndicating. 

Take action by summer next year and focus on progress rather than perfection.Good luck!

Have a bias for action, make mistakes and keep it small and learn.

Rate is but a factor and is easily offset by many other actions that you can take as an investor.  

.: Wow I just got caught up on this @James Wise, bummed I missed the live action.

I definitely recommend that you seek out a Certified Cost Segregation Professional so that you are confident in the quality of the work performed and the deliverables produced.

1) Don't fall into analysis paralysis, theres a ton of ways to invest in Real Estate, pick one and go.2) Take action.

Jeff Sitti - I would buy a performing note that produces 12% returns so he could get approximately $1,000 per month in immediate cash flow.

Take action (when you are 80% ready!)

Each of these things can be worked on and in a few months of consistent and persistent action, you can see a gradual change in your situation.Don't let current circumstances paralyze you.As far action steps:- Research and strongly consider the househacking strategy.
