u can see these homes on my website. also if there is any way to manage it.. if you can figure out how to get paid as a WA resident you will enjoy the same no income tax status you enjoy now.. 

I'm enjoy the challenges of finding creative solutions through the numbers and negotiating what can work for both the buyer and seller. 

Perhaps if your partner was a general contractor or handyman type there may be some merit there to reduce costs / increase profitability.If your partner enjoys deal sourcing, a better move might be for him to become an agent - so he could legally collect commissions from finding deals and managing properties for multiple people. 

Most people would walk away after something like that, but he used the experience to build his expertise and now owns 50+ units.

While the forums here may be helpful, those forums are private and specifically for LPs of any syndication deal, that niche group may have more expertise for you in this situation. 

Thanks again for your time and expertise. 

It's really enjoyable.

Plus you can use it for enjoyment over the years..

I have enjoyed Stessa's interface but unfortunately it is useless to me if I have constant bank connection issues.
