Hello, BiggerPockets community. I am a new investor that recently reached out to an agent that has been investing for a few years now. Blogs, books, and podcasts taught me to find someone that is a few years ahead of me and try to bring value to them. So that's what I did. He has been selling real estate for a long time and recently started investing. He asked if I could get my license and assist him with selling to free up more time for him to find deals and focus more on investments. I got my license as quickly as I could and we are going to meet soon to start discussing the future game plan. He is going to teach me how to sell and eventually bring me in on the investment side. I will be able to work full time while assisting him and the end goal is to be investing full time. Any advice or tips on how to structure this partnership. What should we expect from each other in the beginning? He seems very trustworthy and knowledgable, so I'm not concerned with getting taken advantage of. I'm mainly looking for ways to bring the most value to him so that we can both become successful in the future. Thanks!

Hello everyone. My partners recently purchased an apartment/restaurant that needs a lot of work. They plan on doing a restaurant/yoga studio on the ground floor and a hostel type housing upstairs. There is plenty of work that needs to be done and they are searching for ways to fund the project. The renovation would be great for the community. Are they able to apply for a grant to help pay for the rehab? Are there any other creative ways to get this project funded? Thanks for any advice!

Hello. I am currently searching for wholesalers in the SW Washington area. I have access to multiple investors that can pay cash for properties. I am always searching for deals on my own but figured I'd reach out to other RE professionals on this site. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or possible leads. Thank you!

Hello everyone. I am trying to obtain divorce decree and tax lien lists from the county. I sent in an application and got a reply saying:

"Per court rule GR 31(g)(3): The use of court records, distributed in bulk form, for the purpose of commercial solicitation of individuals named in the court records is prohibited."

Am I going about this process in the wrong way? I'm honestly trying to help people in tough situations. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
