My current partner isn’t as enthusiastic about sharing the building with a tenant but does see the immense benefit to having rental income to help offset expenses.

Indiana ( northwest) has been doing great rent wise and from what i hear, much more landlord friendly than Illinois:Any questions would be happy to help.

hope someone can help!

This allows the new partner to share in the appreciation when the property is sold, which could help compensate for the upfront cash investment they’ll make in buying out the partner.If the current partner is open to it, you could explore a form of seller financing or a gradual buyout plan.

Thanks @Charles Carillo, this is helpful.
