It's disappointing because we've put a lot of work into these buildings and we were so close to the finish line of them being stabilized and would have been there already if he wasn't such a meddler.I've watched this guy use the same tactic of trying to threaten and intimidate delinquent and outgoing tenants with zero success and he never follows through.

These forums are littered with people who have either been scammed or have created all kinds of stress in their lives trying to pull off a deal like this. 

A friend of mine sent me this website recently, and told me to look into it.But as good as it sounds, I have been trying to find the caveat.

@Chris Mason Try estimating payoffs on mortgages originated in 2006 on properties in foreclosure now! 

A Real Real Estate AnalogyI am starting my real estate adventure and I am trying to draw a comparison from paper assets (stocks, bonds, notes, T-bills, crypto, etc.) with real estate.For those who know a bit more than me (and i know this will vary by person) but what are corresponding "tech stocks" (AMZN, AAPL, NVDA, FB, GOOG, etc.) of real estate?

I would not play around with creative finance in terms of spending time trying to find it because it will end up not being the best use of your time unless you have marketing money and understand the different scripts and way you can help people with seller finance or sub to.

Plus, I have a hunch (but haven’t looked into it), that this will limit my scalability.So, I’m trying to see if there’s a different way to structure these loans that keeps things simple for my investors (ie. still getting a 1099), while still collateralizing the loan, and giving them all “equal” position on the debt.What I’m doing is working (I think?)

Just trying to save you some time and money.

Honestly no, margins generally get even worse at lower price points, not trying to be a dream killer, I just know so many agents just make crap up or just haven’t flipped so they don’t understand the numbers involved, it’s near impossible to find anything I do a few hours a day everyday in 15 counties looking for deals on the mls, through wholesalers etc & I haven’t bought anything in over two years.

I appreciate it @James Mc Ree, I'm trying to make the most informed decision and stack options.
