Why is he now entitled to fruits of my labor, my knowledge and education?

My partner was on the acquisitions side of things, so he is extremely knowledgable in novations and creative ways to get the property under contract and I still have an extensive list of buyers, I have built very good relationships with from when I was doing dispositions.I am open to any thoughts on the best way to start and I am open to networking with any one to hear how you got started and what you would do differently now that you have more experience under your belt!

A little about me:I hold a Certified General Appraiser license and have been working in corporate and commercial real estate for over 25 years.My recent focus has been on property investments and appraisal work, including commercial and residential properties, lease-to-own agreements, and broker price opinions (BPOs).I’m always looking for opportunities to expand my portfolio and knowledge in real estate, and I love analyzing market trends and valuations.I’m here to connect with other investors, share insights, and learn from the wealth of knowledge this community offers.

I’m actually flipping, building and buying rentals in your target market so I have enough knowledge and scars to give some information that you should at the very least consider.Feel free to reach out to me via PM if you would like to discuss the market more.

Are you looking from a more traditional real estate perspective where you're trying to acquire an asset for long term preservation of wealth, tax advantages, to have guests help out with the mortgage payemnts, potentially have rents and home value increase in time with normal inflation, and are okay with the idea of paying some amount out of the pocket some (most?)

@Jonathan GreeneLots of great ways to invest in real estate.The decision of active v passive comes down to how time, expensive, knowledge and capital an investor has. 

Pardon my lack of knowledge.
