Many times buyers are new to this and have an idea in their head that might not be rooted in reality.REIT's, and funds with cash are secondary due to the fact they generally do not want a relationship but just things on a deal by deal basis.Third level is partnerships ( family, business associates ) where the people know each other etc.

If you are using a mailing software program it should have a method to mark "flag" certain records and a "find duplicate records" function.

Adding value to a partnership is key and the partnership can not be weighted to heavy on either side or it does not work.Another option to attract a solid and experienced partner could be to have your father incest in their project with the $100k with the terms that you get to follow along from start to finish on the project.
