So about this partner

[Justin Larpenteur]

A friend of mine has been into real estate investing for about as long as I have and we have worked together on other unrelated issues with loans and such. I realized that he has more connections than I do and he has a really good type A personality and loves starting things and taking action. I'm more of a planner and I don't have as many connections since I just moved into a new location. I'm in issue of how exactly I'm going to add value to his business. I've done few deals but I have access to a lot of information in regards to marketing, business management, mentors, and various things of that nature. So I'm hoping this is a way that I can add value without bringing a lot of capital. I'm new to investing compared to some and I'm completely comfortable splitting profits and gaining experience for later on when I need and want to work with other investors. If you were in my shoes, how would you add value?

I love that you asked how you could add value. That's ultimately what we do as entrepreneurs: add value and solve problems.

You're in the right mindset and you will do well. I am looking forward to hearing your success stories :)
