Thanks @Jerry W. Maybe I answered my own question then lol. But I agree with what you say. More than anything I think I just need to get my self deeper in the field as far as more face to face conversation with real estate investors, also to learn from in my area. So I can maybe build a partnership with them and who knows what may come of that.

@Karen Margrave Thanks for the reply. I think I'm going to start using the keyword alerts more to my advantage for meeting people in my same area. Definitely will help with meeting someone with maybe the same plans.

@Michael Jobe for got to post that in my last comment but thanks Michael

Thanks a lot Michael. That's the information I was looking for. I wasn't sure how to go about looking for interested partners but that does make sense. Thanks.

If your someone who is brand new to REI how does one go about looking for partners? Or look for partners who may have the same idea as you as far as investing in certain things? I feel like this is a question of how you find a friend lol. But because I my self want to look for a partner or partners but I'm not sure how people go about doing this. I really don't think walking the streets and telling people about your financial goals and to see if they are interested is one of them. Just looking for a little advice on how some of you on BP forums have hooked up with business partners or go about looking for some?

Thank's Rich B. Yes I'm going to have to shadow some of the work being done. It's really the only way I would learn or like you say youtube. Plus it would save me in repair cost.

Thanks James wise. That makes a lot of sense! I really wasn't to sure on how I was going to go about this when the problem came along but your answer really just hit it on the head for me. Thanks a lot.

Brian L thanks for taking the time to comment. I'm definitely not a good handy pearson. I Probably would have been better if it wasn't for me and my father always turning into some kinda of argument during the process of some type of house hold fixing lol. I also remember the time me and my father put up my bed room in the basement and he had me putting up some of the drywall for him. To keep a long story short when it came time to spackling the walls I probably had a good two inchs on there covering the cracks. But nonetheless I'm prob going to have to stick to finding my self a relatively good priced handyman on the side kind of like Michael said.

Hey Michael Jobe thanks for the reply. Exactly what you put is probably the way I'm going to have to go about it. I had thoughts in those aspects of that way of doing it but wasn't to sure. More than less when it comes down to work on my property's I'm going to need to look along those line's of a good handyman.

I was just wondering being new to real estate. What if you aren't the best handy man when it comes to doing repairs on your properties? I mean say you aren't financially able to get property management yet or it wouldn't make sense to yet. I was just thinking other people have to run into this problem as well to. This really shouldn't keep you from purchasing your first property but it has my mind at ease all the time. Just wondering how maybe other people have gone about this or maybe some thoughts on this?

Thanks Vince
