If the investors are passive and have no active role you have a security and is regarded a syndication . 

If you do not plan to be an active agent and work with other buyers and sellers, then I don't think the big-box brokerages would benefit you.

The only reason that its not way more $ considering how close it is is that there is a highway that divides it AND the schools are horrible, like active gang activity in the highschool bad, but if you don't have kids and even if you're planning on them a few years out, the schools there will get better, its just going to take a bit. 

AKA tax and regulate everything to death, and nanny state harass everybody about their day to day activities with a ZEAL! 

Hi Everyone,I have been an active investor in Northeastern Ohio area.

IE ghettos war zones that type of thing.. or rural areas with no real resale activity.

But know that you will only find people who are actively looking and typing in the keyword phrases that you have optimized for.Mail can be effective if you hit lists that who aren’t on every other investor’s radar.

I have never done a flip before- I have been actively looking for cash flowing multi family properties but this property looks like a good candidate for a flip.

@Sunil KapoorThe major component to discuss: how passive or active do you want to be!

If you want to be more active then you may be able to offer your capital to a more experienced investor for a part of the general partnership.
