So the $8000 buys you exclusive training, deal review and gets you into the "club."

@Chris Seveney I was a Transactional Lender, single closings, buyers lender accepted seller carry back.

First, accept the premise that partnerships rarely work.

For example, my ad will state whether we accept pets, that we want provide income around 3x the rent, and that every adult must pass a credit/criminal screening.

If you just say it was a "bad" wholesaler/contractor/partner that doesn't cover accepting responsibility for what you should have done differently to vet them, manage the partnership etc. 

They accept out of state investors as well, as there are virtual meetings to attend. 

You can do a requested search and pay the exchange fee, normally $219, and it will search an area for a precise time period and it will alert you when they find one and you can accept that resort or not.  

This means a lot of units are sitting, and we're seeing a lot of price reductions, lower offers being accepted, sellers willing to help cover buyer closing costs, etc. 

We accept cash, credit, check at any time of the month, for any period of time.  

Unless you find an attorney that exclusively practices in this area, they won't have that level of knowledge.
