You're providing them real value, and they'll actually want to work with you and teach you what they know.For example, hypothetical successful investor has plenty of cash but is just not finding enough deals that fit their criteria.

When it gets into rural properties and properties that don't quite fit like the one you describe, it's a bit tricky.

He suggested a Partnership called "Tenants in Common" as a way that you keep control no matter what you contribute on a property's price and have different agreements with all Partners regardless of their percentage of their contribution of the purchase price.Whatever you do just be careful, understand it, and feel good about the Partnership or anything put in writing that's a business liability of your personal involvement or responsibility whether it's monetary or not.Good luck to you!

It involves setting up a shell company whereby you buy shares with your RRSP which then invests in US real estate.
