A property manager can make or break your investment if not managed correctly.If you find a great deal, you will find financing for it, whether through hard money, private money, or partnerships (investors).

My biggest lesson on this deal was the value of education and partnerships.

Maybe have a couple non negotiable’s in your search, but anything outside of that, as long as the numbers work after you leave, then pull the trigger.

My investing partner and I are in the process of creating a partnership operating agreement.

@Melissa PoirierYour profile mentions that you are an agent/realtor along with co-owning several properties.Depending on how the properties are owned(tenants in common or through an entity) you should make sure that your new CPA understands the taxation behind tenants in common/entity(partnership or corporation) taxation.He should also understand how business taxation works in relation to work as an agent.Good luck in your search for a CPA.

It would seem they triggered an obligation and used up lifetime exemption with the large cash transfer.With professional advice, this could have been a lot cleaner... 

Hello I am new to the Wholeseller world i am looking for cash buyers just don’t know where to find them and establish a partnership in the near future any suggestions?

If everything is aligned, then pull the trigger.

If it's a long-term home pull the trigger. 

A multi-member LLC really looks / operates like a partnership.
