However, consider looking at the difference between the two from the perspective of the investor: With a syndication, I am fully informed on a specific deal and see the specific returns it can provide.

I see the OG poster closed out their account but @Ryan Dossey I'm very interested in hearing the advice that you offered this wholesaler, would it be too much to ask for the advice you gave him in an open forum on this chain?

I can see the immediate value in the equity I could force and the improvements to cash flow potential.

Please get your creative thinking, knowledge hats on and help me see the best way to close this deal on Friday!

So I talk to a landlord on the phone to go see the property, it's a great location, I will act like a perspective renter.As I walk through the rental, I will ask all the questions a regular renter will ask, like, can you tell me the HVAC how old it is, what's the average bills in the summer, what's the average bills in the winter, I really am looking for a long-term commitment, like 24 months, etcAnd then I'll have a flyer in my handAnd I would say,"Mr.

I would see the guy that did our roof two or three times a year around the neighborhood and he would always say "Hi" and give me a business card.  

@Martin Peter Looks good, can't wait to see the finished product!

My contract has pretty strict stipulations for reletting, and I think I will see the best 'value' overall by giving in and returning the prepaid rent once a new tenant is found.

Buildings like this the lender is going to want to see the buildings financials to see if they want to lend on it.
