My Investor only interesting in a partnership. 

If you wanted to bring it to the BP market, I'd have gone the partnership route.  

I am not sure if that is a standard practice of their broker or a function of the state REC, etc.I’ve tried to return the favor by giving them name and number to folks I approach to buy a property and while they indicate a willingness to sell – they are looking for full retail and not the “wholesale” type price I offer. 

I am just wanting to make sure that they see it as a partnership vs helping out a buddy.  

I am very pleased with the house I got because it functioned like a duplex when I got it.

this is just an idea and if i lose interest in the animal shelter non-profit, i'd likely get into some other non-profit function anyways as since college, i've always been into environmental & humanitarian efforts (mostly overseas) one way or another.

You also get the same person each time when you call and can explain exactly how you want things to function rather than a large companies polices.  

I can't speak for Tom, but I am always open to discuss mutually beneficial partnerships.  

It seems like a good partnership she has the reserves I have the down payment.
