I am looking to partner with someone on a project in abilene.

I was debating if I should partner with a friend or family member who is willing to work on a property together. ill be sure to make sure things are done legally and fairly so no one get short sighted and things don't get messy.

I'm meeting with a couple agents i was referred to through my network and am wondering what critical questions I should be asking them to understand if they are the right partners for me in this market, especially considering I will be managing this investment from the other side of the country, and what info I should be prepared to provide to them.

When doing residential loan for fourplex, my W2 + my partner's W2 can be used to calculate DTI.

Basically partnering on one single effort. 

I partners with these two owners on a deal that just foreclosed recently.

My business partner and I are always looking to partner.  

Your ability to accurately estimate costs and efficiently manage renovations makes you an extremely valuable partner in any deal.

This sounds like it could be a good deal for the partners, and perhaps the bank, but a terribly risky deal for you, with little upside.What exactly do you mean by, “There will be a promissory note drafted for the amount and the duration and interest rates”?
