Let's think these through:Financing is important because when you've found a bird you have to have a way of bringing it down, which in most general terms is a function of having access to money - financing is important.Talking to a realtor will result in gaining access to MLS listed property.

Being open and turning your sales meeting into a "partnership" of participation involves the customer in a more active role to facilitate the transaction.

And turning that cash into funds that I can leverage for short term lending and JV partnerships along with ground up construction which is red hot in many markets.Bruce Norris was the master at this he sold out of CA in 06 and bought Texas now he did not really like his Texas experience and sold to just break even a few years ago but he preserved his CA equity..

@Dylan Tanner There have been many threads on this topic, and joint venture partnerships.

If you and that other person partner up, you could split the purchase.There's a saying -- 50% of something is better than 100% of nothing.If you do go this route, please do your due diligence on the partner and read up on BP about forming partnerships for investing.

You then contact him/her and buy them lunch, and arrange for them to send you listings that have been on the market for 100 days and listings the day the expire (partnership contract to pay them $500 for each deal that closes).

Hello BP Community!

You all have been great answering my questions, i am so thankful for this community! Now, I am considering partnering up with someone who wants to provide me with funding (1-3k) for market...

I have all the cash management functionality of a Fidelity brokerage account.

We'll see what we can do to add this functionality.

We would be open to potential partnerships but haven't really researched that yet.Self storage...I hadn't thought of that either, but we have a lot of friends that use it.
