I can recommend other capable team members.

The only way I have seen this is done is by an agent being the expert in a market area, niche or product type and knowing everything about it, who the major players are and what is available.

Who are the big players here, builders, developers or rehabbers?

Another good option would be to find out who the major multifamily players are in the area and apply for a job with them doing pretty much anything and then work your way up.  

Unless you just want to be a $ partner, I recommend getting as many 1-4 units as you can until you max out your loan capabilities.

No one truly can test honor, trust  and reliability and stick-to-it-iveness needed to be a capable GC!!

Unless you are a significant player in the game, it is my opinion we should do anything and everything we can until it truly does not makes sense to do so. 

@Brian Degener  can't say for certain.. however I would suspect this is impossible. the big banks sell their bad paper in bulk.. and gerneally to hedge fund players for them to sell an individual mortgage so someone like us I just don't think would happen.I have had luck with Small commercial banks.. and local credit unions. .IE where you can personally talk to a decision maker  ( who is usually the VP or president fo the bank or the head credit officer)

The people who are real players in those groups don't pay attention to you until they decide you're serious on your own.Since you're coming from a different background you should take the classes to become a REALTOR.

The partner would seek out investors who are strong players seeking funding, and be a liaison between your organization, and the investor.
