At this time I'm looking for joint ventures.

Any wholesalers or someone with a joint venture on a good deal west north west of Chicago only.  

They will also tell you if you have a good deal or not.Another way, like @Chris Seventy mentioned is to find a joint venture partner, preferably one near you.  

Current property deed has two names (X and Y), however the mortgage note has only one name (X).And as per the title search report, Chain of Title1:When the property was purchased the deed has both X and Y names as joint tenants with the Right of Survivorship.Chain of Title2:Later a quit calm deed was made with Grantor( prior owner)  Y and Grantee (deed owner ) XChain of Title3:Again a bargain and sale deed was made the other way from above Grantor( prior owner) X and Grantee (deed owner ) YCurrent Title (vesting information):And one more time a Deed was made with both names (X and Y) on the deed as joint tenants with the Right of Survivorship.Now, as X is the only mortgage holder from the time of purchase, and bank is foreclosing the mortgage on X, will Y have any legal ownership to the property, if the property gets sold at sheriff sale.

If someone in the NOVA/DC area is willing to do a joint venture deal on a flip or wholesaling deal, I would love to partner up OR even if I could tag along to see how a deal is started from point A – and then finished to point Z (FOR FREE) – this would be most useful!

I was offered a deal to do a joint venture on one of the houses that needs a little work ($7-10k).

I was a Licensed Mortgage Broker back in 2005-2009  and flipped a few homes when no real skill was needed back then and made good money which I foolishly invested into a joint business venture with my hubby in 2006.  

You might want to consider a Joint Venture with an experienced note investor, as they can show you the ropes, and you get a note that you split profits on, vs paying for expensive training. 

There are many people willing to Joint Venture on a project that may be willing to partner with you and provide the cash for a percentage of the profit.

If I set up a series LLC with my wife do I have to include the equity partners as part of that LLC or can I just have a joint venture agreement set up for each property.
