First thing you have to do is have faith in your intelligence.Think on your own and use your awesome analytical powers to dissect everything you come across.Then write down where you want to be in 3 years.

I have always had a passion for RE and have been looking for the time to jump in, now is as good a time as any I feel.My background is in Asset Protection and with that, I am very analytical and would undoubtedly be an asset to the numbers side of the game.

But this is a business decision.Once you have the analytical data, and if you are still on the fence with your decision - - then go with your gut feeling. 

Second, you are good with people and the analytics?

Most importantly, improve your tenant selection analytics. 

@Diego HernandezNormally what I see in different real estate partnerships is one person is very analytical while the other is the extrovert.

I'm not into house flipping, but rather buy and hold for cashflow, thus whether the markets go up or down, as long as there are people needing a place to live, my investments should be safe and they are backed by insurance, which is more than I can say for anything I put in a stock market.I do have an interest in doing some partnerships and have been looking into that possibility in the future, I am very analytical and like doing the property analysis and crunching numbers, however I have no desire to get into the rehab/swinging a hammer side of things so the biggest value I can bring to a partnership is generally being the "lender" or analyzing deals.  

Id try to 3-4 months covered  just for the analytical side, can always lower reserves ... other than that are tenants paying all utilities?

So having MLS market data and analytics back then was super valuable.
