Without that, prepare to spend a very significant amount of time chasing deals.If you have no startup cash at all, you're probably better off looking for a local partner to work with for a cut of the profit.

Does it require a lot of work on my part to make it worth it for KW, or do investor friendly firms not care so much as long as they're getting a cut of the deal?

Give them a cut. 

If you drive for dollars, maybe negotiate with a family member for a cut of any deals they make.

Who can I contact that will give me a cut and allow me to get my loan paid off in the next 30 days.

The area is a nice quaint area, property is .56 acres, stately landscaping with evergreens and shaped shrubs. the back yard has a cute river/creek down a little slope from the house. walking distance to little downtown area and park, 2 miles down the road from the top high school in the state, and 5-10 min from department stores / home depot / walmart / strip mall / nice salons and spas etc. hope that helps answer your question. 25 minutes from downtown Milwaukee, WI. a lot of lakes in the area.
