I help a lot of clients with them and even spoke at a conference about designing them to maximize rents.

Also because we are not using a realtor, how did you conduct the closing, for example did you use a title company and a title attorney??

If you want to form your own syndication, attend a conference, study, find some partners that have skill sets that complement you.As a passive investor looking to participate in out of state syndications, there are a variety of syndicates on BP as well that can share some ideas w/you.  

Does anyone have any tips or pointers on how to conduct the conversation on my end?

Your recommendations on conducting thorough market research would be greatly appreciated.5.

I have invited Jay to speak at conferences and events.

This allows me to advertise the property in advance and I usually have a new renter under contract before the old renter leaves.There are rare occasions where the tenant will not cooperate and allow showings, or I don't want to conduct showings because the tenant is a slob.

Conduct thorough research, assess demand, and have a solid contingency plan.

Yes, let’s get a conference call scheduled.

Probably plenty of other people around that are good coaches and mentors.I think they also have a national conference, so you might go there, before you buy.I'd think if you want to build a big wholesaling and flipping business quickly, franchise can probably help you do that.
