I have spoken to him and his partner/wife Rebecca Jensen quite a bit and they are really good people.

I strongly advise you find a competent CPA or tax preparer, who is experienced in real estate.

@Angela BeadleCheck out the nearby members and network https://www.biggerpockets.com/meet, it will help you a lot to find partners that can help you out in investing.

@Shane O'Donnell I have not worked with this gentleman as my business partner is licensed, but he has several investor clirents, does invest in SRFs himself. 

Hi Terina @Terina McKinney, I am an investor looking for my first deal and would love to partner with an investor friendly real estate agent.  

After many years in construction and construction management, I'm transitioning into real estate. I have some money, not a lot, but I do have time, skills, and experience necessary to flip houses. I am curious if ther...

I am new to the REI scene too and am looking for partners/mentors to help me grow and expand my knowledge on the matter.

I'm putting out advertisements on the BP Marketplace to meet Money Partners.

And so now to answer your question a little better, there is a section on BP that allows you to look for mentors and partners that might be willing to work with you and your level of skill.

If you are new - partner with someone who has done it!!
