I appreciate your help and input. 

One year ago, I was hired to help a landlord whose tenant had stopped paying.

My focus leans more toward equity appreciation than cash flow, and as a rookie investor, I’m aiming to put aside about $25-30k for investments each year.In the meantime, I’m looking to connect with like-minded folks here for mentorship, partnerships, apprenticeships, and even collaborations.Would love to hear your thoughts, advice, or anything you think might help as I continue piecing everything together!

RentRedi’s syndication marketing helped us secure a great tenant in under four days, including employment and landlord verification, as well as criminal, credit, banking, and eviction history checks.

He has been alongside me on the other deals so I’d like to give him equity/skin in the game and I don’t know how else to do itQuote from @Basit Siddiqi: Getting a property with a partner / friend will not help you from getting hosed on taxes.I wouldn't move forward - You mentioned beng a high income earner so your hourly rate is very high.

Let me know and thank you for the help in advance.
