Take numerous trips a year and many times work only 3 days a week. 

She has told me on numerous occasions that she wants to reject the offer, but every time I show up with it she refuses to let me in.  

I decided to specialize in duplexes since numerically, half occupancy is usually good enough to tide me over.

Any suggestions on getting my feet wet ?

Hi Account Closed starting as a bird dog is a great way to get your feet wet in REI.

In my mind, I am looking for a partnership- someone that will work with me (which would involve a lot of teaching in the beginning), whom will benefit greatly by working numerous deals with me in the future.

@Steve HoneyI see you have put a lot of time into your presentation so I have read it numerous times trying to understand it all.

I think if I can find the right place at the right price I can get my feet wet and see how things go.  

The ground was still very wet and as it dried, the "settling" has become pronounced.  

Get your feet wet and diversify your loans with more than one person.
