They did not go to law school, pass a bar exam, and work in the legal field.

Mainly I am thinking about if I should risk using 1031 exchange funds from the sale of one of my SFHs for a down payment or if I should wait until I have cash.

I plan to use hard money to fund a portion of the purchase.

It may violate all sales rules, but I tell new investors fairly regularly not to invest when I feel their objectives are misaligned with the fund we are offering.

I just bought a property about a month ago so I don't currently have the funds for the traditional 20% down on another property. 

I went to inner city public schools and don't come from a lot of money.

I told the buyers the garage might not be ready in time but we would escrow funds and write it in the contract.We tore the old garage down and pored the pad.

I just got approved for a HELOC on my primary residence and was looking to use it to fund my first rental.

Trying to figure out the whole funding thing, reading everything I can on options throughout the BP website and binge listening to podcasts!

Hi BP—Since this is my first time doing a partnership, I need some advice on how to fairly structure the split....I'm coming in with 100% of the required funds for down payment, rehab, and mortgage from my SD IRA and my partner is bringing the deal, his network of contractors and property managers, and his own time and labor to help with rehab basics.
