@Brian Singer I think I get it--you want to JV with a syndicate sponsor where they'd raise the money and you would contribute your skills at either finding deals or rehabbing units?  

Same document sheds light on your other thread in re:"In dealing with the buyer, a seller's agent should (a) exercise reasonable skill and care in performance of the agent's duties; (b) deal honestly, fairly and in good faith; and (c) disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property, except as otherwise provided by law."

Its like when you go in for surgery and they take all of your vitals, but until they cut you open, they really don't know.Also, ask to speak to some of their passives.

I also want to become a licensed contractor and highly skilled in carpentry and electrical.

When I started working for this company, I had very limited construction skills.

I work as a full-time realtor so I had all the paperwork, resources, and skills to negotiate the deal and get it to closing without having to pay someone else a commission. 

I've been reviewing a ton of deals in the past few weeks in the Pittsburgh area, and I definitely can appreciate how vital underwriting taxes into the deal can be. 

Whether from a skill perspective or an interest perspective or just general risk perspective.

If there's any way I can be of use, I have a pretty unique skill set that includes proficiency with computers, automotive repairs, as well as writing/editing.
