I was never really sure what my contribution was going to be, I thought that maybe if I just showed up, I'd find some way to be useful..it was always hard for me to think of a way that my career and education in intel and ocean engineering could somehow contribute in a meaningful way.After Ky passed away, I needed to start looking for a post-ROTC career immediately, and decided that real estate investment was the quickest and most stable way to build up to a livable income for when I come back off active duty.

@Mitch Messer, would certainly like to tell our story and contribute to your program Mitch.

Should I simply deposit the money into my personal account and then transfer it over to the LLC account as an owner contribution?

"We also think there will continue to be shortages of new housing in many markets, which will contribute to overall price growth."

I would not hesitate using them again.My other advice, IF you chose not to do business with Sense would be to talk to some of the 'smaller' providers like some of those that contribute here in the forums.

We'd hold title as a 50/50 TIC between my solo 401(k) and my friend personally and each side would contribute equal 50% shares of all equity.

Basically he contributed 100% of the cash required and took only a 20% equity stake. 

I expect to also be contributing cash to the project outside of the exchange.I would welcome any guidance from anyone in the community that has experience executing a similar scenario in the Western Washington area.Thanks in advance to the community.

Banks in the Denver area are looking for a 20%-25% equity contribution from the developers.

Then sell half of the shares of the company to your family member for his contribution.
