@Steve Candor the CO2 is to attract the bedbugs, it does nothing to kill them.

There were some old links (2009) around for a business plan to attract investors, but none of them work now.

It's attractive to better tenants that don't want to move in a hurry but also don't want to pay double rent.

They just hire someone inexpensively, tell them the max # and the person bids like a drone up to this number.The other states with online auctions seem to have few if any attractive properties in the online inventory.

With the intent of your plan there is ZERO attractiveness to either of these two deals from any unknown investor and frankly even family members likely will not like this either.You need better reading material from folks who actually do put deals together, I feel like you have read too much from folks with pipe-dreams.

What is it about this deal that you find attractive?

It does have it's attractiveness though.

I wish there were more threads to track performances of existing deals by investors -- I just started looking at crowdfunding and did invest money -- now I am getting worried :-( The deals on realtyshares ( or other places ) seems very legit -- They offer attractive ratio with borrower investment as well as personal guarantee from borrower -- 

Doing so will change the way you think and communicate, which will make you more attractive to those who have the pieces you currently lack.

But it would be attractive to a potential buyer.I'd really hate to do something stupid/costly.
