@Anessa Salinas Great to see that you and your spouse want to immerse yourself in the world of real estate.

Over the past 6mo or so I have totally immersed myself with learning as much about real estate as I could. 

It is  an Australian game played different from US football.

@Yuriy ShepelinYou're not providing enough details as to what type of asset you're investing in, what market, what is the strategy, how much work is involved on each partner side, how long is the holding period, what are the exits, and etc...Aside from that when evaluating a structure there are several factors you need to take into account:1) everything is negotiable2) your "designated driver" experience and personal "skin in the game" play a part in the structure3) the structure could be waterfall and/or combination of multiple things.

Agents that don't immerse themselves 100% in the business.

Just heard of REI a few backs and have become fully immersed.

You really need to immerse yourself and learn all you can.

@yonahweiss I  am looking to connect with more investment partners and just immerse myself with like minds. 

This is a great place to immerse yourself with Real estate knowledge and make lots of new connections.

I've been immersing myself in the topic by reading as much as I can in books and online as well as by listening to BP podcasts.
