If you don't have much money to start, try driving for dollars, putting out bandit signs, and some other more time-extensive/cheaper methods.

I've seen more that one addition where the proper repair involves a bulldozer.

You can purchase a multi family home with your entitlement, live in one and rent out the others  with 100% financing.That should be your preferred method of financing for the least amount of money out of pocket.  

Definitely looking to get more involved in the community of individuals in our area.  

And will there be tax involve?

The seller financing idea seems very involved for sure. 

One partner will 'silent' and be bringing the down payments of aproxiamtely 20-25%, and the other partner (me) will be doing all of the aquisition, rehab management, finding tenants, ongoing PM, etc.....I am currently involved in 3 other partnerships that own buy-n-hold rentals, but all of them are 3 people, so '33-33-33'.

That's a very interesting process they have, I'm not sure I want to get involved in that initially. 

Do you involve an attorney in the process?

I've done the rehab all myself so far with the exception of contracting out the new HVAC installation and electrician and I've gained a great deal of experience and appreciation for what is involved.
