How to Partner on A Deal

[Jamila Thompson]

Hi everyone,

I am a 23-year-old engineer in the NYC area. I have yet to do my first deal. 

I am interested in investing in NJ and CT multifamilies. Is partnering on a deal a good start to getting acquainted with the mutifamily investing process or do you suggest buying a multifamily on your own first? I have been out of college for a year and none of my friends are really interested in real estate. I would love to partner on a deal in the near future, but where do I find trustworthy partners? What makes a good partnership deal? In specific terms, how do I know a potential partnership is beneficial for me? I would love it if you can recommend resources. 

Thank you
