:-)BTW, I'm actively looking for working partners with some cash to put in for the short to mid-term.

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

My advice would be to partner with someone who has additional funds so you can buy something that is of quality. $8k won't get you anything in a class B or A market with 20% down or even 10% down. keep going though!

Again, all so another of my partners could jump into manage where I left off, if I weren't around anymore.

As I look to grow, I’m considering joining a coaching/mentorship program like Partner Driven or something similar.

We would regularly get emails with requests from new Kiavi staff or partners we had not previously been introduced to.

FYI, if you're cash strapped - not the worst idea to potentially partner up with someone to soften the blow of the $30-$40k for the garage/rental completion. 

The people at Capital Syndicate do everything they can to protect and promote you as a business partner (not a "bird dog"). 

There will likely be a partnership return required where you flipped a house with a partner and lost $120,000.If you sold the other property within the same partnership, it will also be reported on that partnership return.The net result to you is that you will receive a K-1 showing your income / loss which you then use to report on your individual return.If you made no money within the same year, you likely pay no additional taxes / get no additional refund.Best of luck.

but it doesn't require me to make giant down payments that as @Joe Villeneuve is always rightly pointing out take decades to be paid back with that $37 a month that you net.I wonder if your maybe trying to come into them a bit too lean, or not communicating it in the right way, so seller is getting a feeling your just being a vulture vs a partner.
