Ezekiel Williams how to find a partner with capital
27 June 2022 | 19 replies
thanks Hi Ezekiel,[1]  Maybe try not looking for someone with "Capital" but look for someone with "Cash to Invest along with you"[2]  The "Gain Experience" Not Much Money of my Own" pairing might be a red flag to a lot of more experienced investors.So try to have some Cash Money of your own, (skin in the game money), work a 2nd job, get a part time temp job, drive Uber Eats, drive Uber, etc... until you get $35,000 or so investment cash.That might make people have more confidence in you when you find them.

I'm sure if you looked you would be able to find private money or hard money lender willing to lend to you but for the most part any lender (bank or otherwise) is going to want a personal guarantee or "skin in the game on your part.Do you have a high limit credit card you can use?

For me as long as I get a deal in a good area at 65% ARV(minus repair costs obviously), I tell whole sellers I dont care how much they make, without them (atleast for that specific find) I wouldn't of had the deal so the more the better.if you want, send me a PM with your email and I will forward you the last email I got from him (im on his email list), shows his various properties he is wholeselling right now. probably help give you an idea of how he does it You dont have to wholesell the deal either, if you want to do the work and flip the property yourself you can, but you will find less investors that want to only be a bank, and the ones that do will generally want you to have more then just a deal, they will want you to have some percentage of cash/skin in the game.
