There technically does not need to be a partnership return prepared as a rental activity can be reported separately.

There are a solid group of other people in the Valley that are active here in Arizona, so I'm sure you can get plenty of "sounding boards" as you progress.

A secured credit card will also help, if its actively used and paid off.

Right with you you Brandon - one of my favorite discovered threads so far.

The best way to network here is to be active and join in on the conversations.

If you like, I can put the properties through my data protocols so we can see if there is any activity that indicates an heir or relative or creditor might be found.

So someone set a wrong flag somewhere for it to pop up on Zillow as "active & available".Steve Babiak, I haven't seen this property do don't know if I want it or not I was more curious why it was listed with no price seemed it was not really ready but in a staging area.

I am actively looking to purchase my first single family home to invest in and hold for a while and eventually purchase a multi-family property (as funds permits of course) but before i do i want to gain insight.

I am not sure I have the DTI to qualify, nor do I want to put 20% down on this property, as I would rather use my current available cash for more active business ventures that are currently giving me higher and faster COC returns.

:)Sean, you might have better luck hitting up old landlords who want to retire from landlording activities....
