Real Estate Development is a very rewarding career.

I was recently approached by a contractor who wants to partner basically I would have to put in either all or some of the money to acquire and to fix a real property how would you say we divide the money that we earned?

@Eva Hambrick a few things...First, I obviously want a CPA who is a experienced in rental real estate; including things like depreciation, capital improvements vs maintenance expenses, passive activity losses, applying 1031 exchanges, etc.Second, as both a business owner and real estate investor, I want my CPA to understand that I have both earned income and passive income, and help me strategize how to reduce my tax liabilities from this standpoint.Finally, I want my CPA to be proactive in helping me plan and manage my tax strategy as part of my overall financial health all year long, not just file my tax return in April.
