I ran into this trying to do a flip in Fountain Hills this last year. My flip sat for months and I slowly watched any hope of profit disappear. There is more than 1 reason obviously for this but a big part of it was DOM, things just don't sell quickly there. 

looking forward to it!

How have you all set up partnerships with international partners (Canada specifically in this case?) Is there some business entity that is better than others? If the person in the other country is married to a US citizen can you get around some of those taxes/issues by doing business under their spouses name? 

Thanks for the advice and any experiences! 

I have time and I know a guy who has money and we are ready to partner on a deal. The questions is if your partner (the money) lives in Canada what is the best way to set up said partnership? 

Thank you for your advice and any experiences!

Dave,

I am was getting on BP to ask the same question. Let me know if you find a good place, I will do the same. 

Anyone have a good a investor friendly title company in Arizona? Thanks!

@Rich Baer Thats along the lines of what i was thinking. Just like to bounce these things around when off other people when I have never done them before.  

Found a deal "walking for dollars" that will make a good wholesale. I have never wholesaled before and was wondering if anyone here in Arizona has a purchase agreement they use? Trying to lock the property up ASAP. 

I am still a newbie currently in the middle of a live in flip. I recently took the family "walking for dollars" in the neighborhood and came across a FSBO single family being sold as-is and called the number on the sign. The property has some back taxes and liens and needs a lot of work but comes at a significant discount, falls within the 70% rule.

Since I have never dealt with liens before my question is, what's the best way to lock the property up but still give myself an out in case liens aren't "as advertised" or construction is more than anticipated?

@Charlie Fitzgerald @Paul Santos Thank you all for the warm welcome!
