Quote from @John Friendas: There's a house I'm considering buying with a business partner as an investment rental.

Hey David, my partner builds these in the LA County area.

For background, I'm partnered with an architect and interior designer, but I'd have to find most of the subs as I don't have any formal connections (at least in the area I'd like to build).

SDIRAwealth, Beckstone partners.

He doesn't personally provide the coaching but it's done by his partners (Thomas Lorini in my case). 

@Jeanette Land why don't you canvas your network to find a money partner?

Second, by working with an investor does this mean partnering with them and using their capital for investment properties like fix and flips?

If you want to be truly passive while living abroad you could consider a DST transfer or syndication where you transition your properties to professional management and get paid as a limited partner and not have to worry about any sort of property management takes.

I personally created all the artwork displayed throughout the property, and my partner and I tackled all the remodeling and landscaping work ourselves What was the outcome?
