@Astrit Bauta, regarding your final comment of the original post: why would a general partner go through all of the trouble of sourcing a deal, putting together an offering, executing on the project, etc without being compensated?  

Had I based it solely on the cash flow at the time of purchase I may have passed on it for not being what I was wanting to get.

@Jessica HuynhI think @Zack Karp or @Michael Facchini would be better able to advise on this but I'm guessing that you're unable to get pre approved on your own as the sole borrower, correct?

End goal is to eventually scale my real estate portfolio and make real estate investing my main source of income.

BTW, Theres paint shortages so confirm that they have a good source even SW has been tight on some of their products.

Definitely if the cash flow is the primary source of return, there are numerous other investments that are more passive (ADU additions are far from passive) that are likely to produce better returns. 

There are webcasts and tools that will help you find deals to get started and analyze them to be sure they are good ones and not lemons . . . very inexpensive source of education and one "bad deal" woudl more than cover what you woudl have paid for an annual membership.

I believe the overflow came out of the washing machine drain (first noticed there by the tenant), but I don't think that rules out the kitchen sink as the source. 

This deal is solely the home.

We don't recommend relying solely on an agent as they're out of the picture after the closing.
