If you go the partner route, you will need to determine what value you are bringing to the table to attract a partner.

@Emily Bo if you get reinstated please let me know I am always looking for investor friendly agents especially those who understand stand both sides of the table and are open minded and think outside of the box.

I’ve studied continuously and am constantly striving to learn more, I don’t have much to bring to the table at this moment but I would greatly enjoy someone more experienced in this world hearing me out and giving me some constructive criticism on the subject.

@Ryan Ward You have to come to the table with $12500.

I'm now looking to partner with someone who will bring their net worth to the table and sign on the loan with me.

I struggle with whether I should take some money off the table and sell off some properties, reinvest in other areas that cash flow with some more room to grow on the apprecIation side, or just play the long game and ride it out.

I was also confused when I saw all the "Auction.com" banners and tables everywhere. 

And I have only seen one exchange where a client of mine brought cash to the table.

I'm sure the mortgage pros will weigh in on this but I believe that since this is an investment property most DOS rules are off the table.

Unlike you, I'm interested in multifamily rental properties, but if you ever want to connect to discuss each other's strategies and what we could bring to the table together, please PM me.
