i agree with Nathan, having an accountant to keep track of real estate is probably the most important to making sure your books are well maintained.

Replicating over the income and expenses tracking for best accounting tracking and practices?

Finding an investor might be hard with no track record, especially for 50% as you have to prove why you are worth 50% - what are you bringing to the table?

He is on track to do around 750 closings this year, so I would say he is pretty focused on RE!

Be willing to split the profit very favorably toward the partner until you've proven yourself and built some capital to put some of your own skin in the game.For a presentation you would also want to provide information on what teams you have access to--do you have an agent with expertise in local neighborhood pockets, one who will sell for 1%, do you have crews, someone bringing you wholesales, etc?

.), geographic considerations (population in the 3 and 5 mile, population growth, rent, occupancy, and cap rate comps, crime statistics, traffic count), sponsor/general partner track record and expertise, asset class considerations (it is possible to invest in an asset class with a small amount of equity that you may have no experience in), master lease, exit strategy (you do not get to control the exit, the general sponsor will trigger the exit based on their goals and objectives).The other thing to consider is that sponsors will sell equity on a first come first serve basis.

But right when you think it could be a national type thing I get proven wrong.. very easy to check with the regulators though.  

This will allow you to easily determine at the end of the year what is business and what is personal.I would also download an app to keep track of your miles that you drive for business related purposes.This will all be handy when you work with your accountant.

There are lots of free resources that track supply and demand data like CBRE, MFN, Housing wire, Zillow etc.

First of month because tracking anniversary dates is a nightmare!
