I enjoy college football, video games, and lifting weights. 

That may be a little too aggressive but I do enjoy landlord friendly states as opposed to the tenant friendly ones.

The way that I have done this in Costa Rica has been to bring in several partners on a high end luxury property who would like to own a part of a property that they can use and enjoy but that they don’t have to manage by themselves.Each of the properties that I own are at a million or higher or will be soon. 

Remind them of quiet hours, city ordinance, right to quiet enjoyment, etc.

I didn’t really enjoy any part of being a landlord.

Perhaps if your partner was a general contractor or handyman type there may be some merit there to reduce costs / increase profitability.If your partner enjoys deal sourcing, a better move might be for him to become an agent - so he could legally collect commissions from finding deals and managing properties for multiple people. 

I realize you're starting out so it may be a while before the lucrative legal projects appear but if you enjoy your field they will because you will get very good at it. 

Hope you’re enjoying your stay in Malta travel safe and happy new year.

I'm sure the one Chase will send you is thorough, detailed and will do the trick.I purchased @Michael Blank's Syndicated Deal Analyzer however, and I do enjoy using the tool. 

At some point, the juice isn't worth the squeeze for us and we just want to enjoy life.
