But some people do.As an agent, my team works with a lot of investors and based on experience we require OOS clients to meet with us in Milwaukee at least one time to check out neighborhoods in person.

With this method, we can be confident that our conclusions are based on thorough research and impartial analysis.

Or is there a limit based on the amount of deals coming in?

@Brittany RogersonYes, you would want to work with a fee based or fee only financial/wealth advisor both have advantages over a traditional advisor. 

idk, i feel like there are necessary details missing here. but i'm also wondering if it would make sense to just reallocate the percentages based on what each person is bringing to the table. it would've been easier if you did have an LLC whose operating agreement you could just change. there's also the 'lazy' 1031 or 'reverse' 1031 where you just make the sale, then strategize with your cpa on how to offset the cap gains for that year. also worth noting: 1/3 of something is better than all of nothing. it sounds like it's not really that partnerships aren't working, it's moreso that you feel like your % is no longer fair? 

I'm assuming based on his post that this is in Modesto or Merced.

Would it be beneficial to wait for the "home run" or to use different parameters and get a "base hit".

The bankruptcy gets combined, in a way, with the house debt and could create a short sale, foreclosure, or more.

My guess is there isn't going to be a clear answer based purely on math and analytics, so what makes the most sense for your current life and your future goals? 

For you it'd be less risky and less debt to use the 1031 approach.
