Hello, I'm wondering if anyone could help me come up with a deal(contract) with a co worker of mine who has money($200k) to invest in a couple of houses and they want to be a partner with me. 

Hi there,Looking for a co-owner/investor/live-in property manager - I’m looking at buying an SFR in Asheville, NC, to use as a homestay (one permanent resident will live in the property, and one or two rooms will be rented on AirBnb.)

Well, considering a smoke detector at Home Depot costs around $8 and a CO detector costs around $25, it's really not a huge cost even if they are required.

As a beginner, you can learn a lot from your uncle with a few rentals in another state or a co-worker that's on their second house hack.

However, I purchased it without my husband as a co-buyer - his income was not considered and his credit was not used.

I'm sure other brokerages have similar policies, just a matter of either researching them online or calling around.For your first deal representing yourself, I would recommend finding an experienced and savvy agent within whichever brokerage you're working with and asking them if they would help you as a co-agent with your first transaction for a split of your commission.

Dan, like someone already mentioned, that is a good deal considering you are going to have a co-signer that is currently renting from you and you like them.

The problem is I wouldn't qualify for a conventional loan, would I be able to add my son as a co-borrower?

Everything was working well until my loan officer said that I would now need a co-signer to supplement for my income because my income we were using before was projected income that won’t start until May.
