Also, for people who wish to pursue larger real estate ventures, you don't personally need to be able to analyze a deal, and can possibly partner with someone who does or even hire an underwriter.

A syndication was way overkill because there were only 5 capital partners so they customized an operating agreement with their attorney that outlined roles and responsibilities, distributions, membership interests, etc.And you don't have to have all this stuff figured out right now; it's very customary for us to assign the contract to whatever customized entity we end up forming.Just one caveat. 

Invested with Four Peaks Partners 8 years ago in a MHP.

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

Why is a "Partner" with the securities going to lend to you at a discount?

And you now have to file three tax returns:- partnership tax return- your individual tax return reporting 1/2 of the partnership losses- your partner's individual tax return reporting their 1/2 of the partnership lossesAnd while partnership return can be DIY-ed, it probably should not be.

Whether you spend time networking, reading books, watching videos or connecting on bigger pockets or if you spend cash hiring a mentor, maybe partnering up with or doing free intern work for a real estate investor; whichever route you decide to go investing in yourself is one of the best investments you can make. 

Yes, operations is a big part of that, especially for anyone that wants to be a business for the long-term.If I were you, I would be talking to office brokers about partnering more than an online forum.   

As @Dennis McNeely stated you could partner up with someone else on a deal or deals.

If you partner with the right agent and use the advice and mentorship that Bonnie's group is offering, you should be in good shap!
