@Sean WalcottSyndication is just a fancy term to represent the pooling of money together to make some type of investment.The investment will depend on the prospectus and the investment strategy of the sponsor.A syndication can invest in Stocks, Pre-IPO companies, crypto or real estate.Since you are on a real estate site, I assume a real estate syndication.A real estate syndication can be very broad as there are many strategies - SFH, Multi, Land, Commercial, Storage, etc.Speak to your CPA how an investment in a syndication will impact your taxes.Normally, you will be a limited partner / non-managing member in a syndication which limits your capability of utilizing losses to offset your W-2 income since you won't have active participation.

If you're going the umbrella insurance route, perhaps see if it will cover you for several things including just the routine slip and fall (like mold or earthquake).

. $150 is petty cash or a drop in the bucket that´s part of my basic routine expenses.

I found in the past that those folks who give themselves the title of "wholesaler" aren't really truly investors (wholesaler) many have take a seminar in a motel on the weekends and fancy themselves as experts in the real estate business ------- a newbie with a title does not make one successful in this business.In fact - they have very little knowledge of basic creative financing - contract engineering - seller financing mortgage clauses - power prospecting - dealing with industry agents - title companies - auction - tax sales or how to stay legal when deal with foreclosures mortgagors.Be careful - there are some tricky folks out there who will say anything to peek into your wallet.Charles

I was looking for something that offered hyper local networking with other investors, lenders, contractors, agents, brokers, and good old fashioned conversation with like minded professionals over pretentiously fancy drinks and cold beers.

I know my team will need to be based in Mississippi, which the majority of my family lives around the area so they can help with PM and other issues & I routinely visit 2-3 times a year.Basically, what am I missing? 

@Braden Smith, There was a real estate investor in WA State, Joe Kaiser, who routinely bought the homes of people facing property tax foreclosure and let the owner's stay in them. 

Financing was done through normal lender (bank) channels so nothing fancy or creative there.

Which is a fancy way to say a landlord can eat a minor net loss for a few years if there is many many more years or following profitability.
