Currently I am working in partnership on a luxury Air Bnb property in the Philippines to familiarize myself in short-term rentals.I live in Cerritos, CA and am looking to invest into a multi-family home to house-hack in Orange County, CA to get started.I will need a residential agent and possibly a contractor.I look forward to learning and hopefully working with you all!

Sure, all channels can work, even seller financing or foreclosures, but in my experience, a well-connected agent can uncover hidden gems that often outperform the trickier avenues.Since the post is still fresh, I’m curious.. do you foresee other potential add ons that might elevate the returns even further, like corporate housing partnerships or short-term seasonal leases?

Typically you cannot 1031 out of a syndication as the partnership (ownership enttiy) must be the one to do it, not an individual investor.2.

And don’t underestimate the power of direct outreach; some sellers may be more flexible if you present a clear, structured plan for partnership or financing.

I love how you emphasized the importance of educating investors about the market cycle and long-term strategies—it’s all about creating a win-win partnership. 

We were considering a LC, Or ULC or even a partnership for the pass-through.Beyond that is somthing i will have to def learn more of. 

An easier route would be to convince him to go in on the short term rental together in a partnership. 

I've lost friends and family to substance abuse so it seemed like an opportunity to do some good and make money in the process.I negotiated a sweet deal, and was prepared to buy it myself, but a few of my clients expressed interest and I ended up helping two of them form a partnership.

Otherwise, a partnership, private lenders, or even hard money lenders might be an option.

Another option is investing in real estate through partnerships or fractional ownership, focusing on properties that yield cash flow or appreciation potential.For long-term growth, consider diversifying into assets such as private equity, tax liens, or even certain types of real estate that offer both capital appreciation and income potential over time.
