Joint Venture
I am looking to partner up on some deals to help get us started. I live in Ohio about an hour north of Columbus. We are looking to move to north Alabama soon. I would like to partner up either on wholesale deals or buy and holds. I have invested in education and now need help with money to put down.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!

The best way to go about a JV is to either be the "money" or the "knowledge".
Passive money partner or active on ground project manager.
I have had quiet a few JV deals go sour in the past. Although I'm not a fan of contracts and to this day don't have any with my closest partners I suggest maybe drawing up something brief.
Trust and building a relationship is key before entering into any arrangements.
Thanks
