Purchase Contingent On Finding an Investor (Buyer)

[Brian Davis]

I was just wondering if it is possible to make an offer contingent on finding an investor ("partner") for a property. Say I have an off market seller and I propose to buy the house at x dollars only if I can find a partner (buyer) for the property within x days. Also add some verbiage about using the MLS to locate that investor (buyer). Are there any legal issues with a strategy like this? Any reason this can not be a contingency within a contract?
