I definitely like the idea of purchasing something fully renovated and ready to go for a piece of mind.

A person can find some prints to use for at best 8-12 unit complex but up to 50 units, an architect is essential and one who knows multi-unit housing and not some quazi-art piece of a building.

All mail and correspondence will be going to this address and forwarded via email and if necessary, physical pieces to my personal address.

I love the idea of multiple units on a piece of land.

My first piece of advice is get the best attorney you can afford because that will pay for itself in potential headaches and problems.

For primary home, I would definitely want to see it in person unless I had already mailed down a neighborhood and knew exactly what I wanted. 

I'm scaling a portfolio in Indy and have all of the pieces of the puzzle together from a deal flow (always looking for more sources), financing, contractor, and PM perspective.

That seems to get more traction than another piece of paper.

[1] A $2,000 a share buy in seems like you might be dealing with people the SEC says you can't deal with.[2] and 200 investors will be a huge PITA to administrate over time.[3] and having to ask about SEC laws online piece-meal means you may not understand the law(s) enough to avoid stepping into a jail cell.

@Jaimin Patel there is ALWAYS something negative going on that will make it not seem desirable to buy a piece of real estate.
