The more value add needed on a property the riskier it is, for your first deal I'd consider that when you're looking at this deal, if it's your first one a partner who has done something like this before could be very valuable. 

STR I would highly recommend not to focus on as first investment: also there, my partner is a superhost and we have been managing Airbnb for years and the last year has been pretty funky: people tend to book last minute and you risk to be cash flow negative starting brand new.

Also, how would members start the actually business platform to where me and her are 50-50 partners? 

Hello all, I have never invested with a partner before but looking at possibly doing it in the near future.

Have you ever partnered with a private or hard money lender for a real estate deal?

Just make sure they won’t place a lien on your company.Equity Partner: Consider bringing in an equity partner to help with the $300K down payment in exchange for a share of the property.Renegotiate Terms: Try to renegotiate the closing date or lower the down payment amount.

But most importantly, focus on partnering with a lender who is experienced in investment properties and the BRRRR method.

As i continue to pursue this path, I also wanted to put an opportunity out there to any new potential partners. 

My business partner manages 20+ UB South campus properties for an out-of-state group.
