Several months ago, I entered into a partnership with someone that was offering to put up all of the money for my investments.

How should i contact divorce and probate attorney to setup a referral partnership?  

It's a partnership.  

If you are just starting out and plan a long career of real estate acquisitions and you don't have a sugar daddy, then financing of one sort or partnership, joint ventures are the way to go.If you are winding down, selling off property, preparing for carefree retirement, then maybe all cash is the way to go.

It means nothing when it comes to the nuts and bolts of a partnership.

I am open to partnerships and assisting prospective investors in doing the groundwork they need.Thanks

Personally, I'd much rather there be a partnership where we do lots of deals without lots of negotiation, but that's up to you...if you'd rather every deal be a tough negotiation, I'm okay with that too (I dislike negotiation, but I tend to be pretty good at it)...-  You obviously don't need to bring me your deals before you distribute them to other people, but if you bring them to me first, there's a MUCH greater chance I'd be interested.  

I could possibly do a partnership with someone who has construction skill and funds to do the development without purchasing it outright.    

Could these be alleviated by using my smaller downpayment to get into a partnership?

We are both eager to jump in but are running into road blocks on how to structure this small partnership.
