Partnership with family

[Ryan Johnston]

Hi guys.  A family member and I have decided to invest in a property together.  We have agreed on a 50/50 split, in which they will fund majority of down payment, and I will manage the property.  We will split rental income profits, and will split profits if we sell the property in the future.

Would you recommend us BOTH being on the title, or would it make more sense for us to sign a partnership agreement stating scope of agreement, in which only one of us (me) is on the title?
