A little about myself, my partner and I are looking to get started in real estate investing.

Some lenders will favor cash offers while not making it an absolute requirement before they list the property.You can be a cash buyer and not have the cash if you partner with someone who does.

Targets such as having sellers call you, finding investors and partners, and recruiting bird dogs.

I think he's looking for someone to partner with in his area.

You then tell them that you will turn the file over to your 'partner' who will follow up and work on a short sale.I and a few other investors I know avoid short sales as they can be a large drain on one's time.

Under IRS code Subchapter K of Chapter 1 § 721(a) - No gain or loss shall be recognized to a partnership or to any of its partners in the case of a contribution of property to the partnership in exchange for an interest in the partnership.Originally posted by "REI":You need to check with the local recorders office, title company or attorney depending on how you are going to handle the paperwork.

Do you just say to the seller that the investor is your partner and needs to come see the house?

It is now time for me to branch out further and get involved in investing on a larger scale versus partnering on small single family rehabs/flips.I joined "biggerpockets" in order to further hone my skills and education and to network with others in this market.

Or you can find a partner.

There are 3 partners in this group.
