We would like to work with an attorney and tax specialist who focus on out of state real estate investing so we can setup our corporations correctly, establish the correct partnership structure, and ensure we minimize our tax exposure from the onset.Thanks again!

You'll open yourself up to a lawsuit if you do that.As @Ashish Acharya mentioned, we don't know what's in your operating agreement so a specific answer is hard to give.It may be advisable to sell the properties at a discount and then liquidate the partnership by distributing all proceeds according to the operating agreement. 

You can partner with someone who does and fill a specific role in the partnership to get the job done (deal finding, rehab management, property management, ect)

NO General Partnership or Syndication?

What is a typical split for a partnership where 1 party is financing the entire operation & the other party is managing it?

Find out what that is and if you have certain areas you are falling short, find a partnership to fill those gaps. 

@Todd FullerloveAlso remember "50% of a deal is better then no deal "So I recommend connecting to someone that has money in your area, that you trust him, and do a partnership. that is how you can get the money/credibility for refinancing/mentoring.

@Danielle Wolter I must say, that sounds like potentially fertile ground for a partnership!

I'd get as much lined up ahead of time as possible though (partnerships, business plan, financing lined up, niche you want to pursue). 

What type of partnership should I seek out for a new construction single family deal that I plan to hold?
