You don't want to ruin a friendship.

Purchasing property together is not like a friendship where you can have differences with one another and just decide not to talk anymore.

((Best)) way I can think of is have some money to invest and partner with a more experienced developer who is doing what you want to do.Come in as a Jr. type partner in the deal, and work full time at it--learning.By Jr. type partner I mean you are not calling the shots, but are in on all meetings and all aspects of the project.After a few deals maybe you want to go it on your own, or maybe just keep on partnering....A good partnership is a definite strength--but it depends on the person.I would say that is the (BEST) way to learn a particular development type.If you lack meaningful money try befriending a few developers and just talk shop as well as friendship things, and see what turns up.But to be a developer you will need to have a good sized chunk of change to risk (possibly losing) to do a deal.Good Luck!

You will make life long friendships and connections in college.

So please, use an attorney at all times, regardless of the friendship or referrals. 3) Communication Is Important - When taking on a property manager, ensure that they will communicate.

If you are in the area and want to stop in, certainly do but there is no need to have contact between you and the tenant outside of a visit.This is a business relationship, not a budding friendship. 

My handyman did quite a bit of work 7 years ago on my property we kept the friendship and he'll shoot over there for a clogged toilet however I have not needed him because I did a renovation and everything is still fairly fresh once you've determined an area and have figured out if short-term rentals are allowed go to Airbnb and check the comps very easy to do?.

A few years ago I traded homes with a gentleman named Claud and landed big equity, a new banking relationship, a remodel job and two new friendships. 

Hopefully he would be willing to work with me and create a friendship even!
