I would try to tie those experiences and skill sets to your REI path.  

Now, I'm stepping into the investor role myself and looking to learn, grow, and connect with like-minded individuals.I'm eager to share insights from my lending experience while also gaining knowledge from seasoned investors.

A partnership requires three things to be successful - Experience, Capital and Time.It looks like you have the capital and experience but maybe not the time.I have my doubts about this working if you have a friend who has weak credit and a limited cash flow.

I already have the knowledge, experience, and systems in place to do about 20 properties this year.

I have over a decade of experience in strategy consulting and in real estate underwriting for new acquisitions and ground up developments.

In our experience, the #1 mistake landlords make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.

Sounds like you’ve got some solid experience under your belt.

It’s possible to start small, build experience, and scale over time.

Managing a rental property can be challenging, especially if it’s your first experience.

Just from my own experience, if you were not going to separate the heat, electrical, or plumbing, I would do it anyway.
