Bringing something like the ability to obtain low to no money down financing to an investor that has all of their capital tied up in other deals at the moment, in addition to you maybe doing some of the value add repairs and maintenance as part of your contribution to the partnership is very valuable.

You won't get the full benefit but I believe you would still a get a meaningful tax saving. 

in my opinion, there are some things you can do yourself like demo, clearing landscaping, and throughout the job you can spot small areas to contribute, but any finish work that'll be visible to buyer should be done with skilled, trained hands. 

I'd divide the proceeds by capital contribution amounts, however, CHARGE the partnership for ALL of your work to make it happen. 

Thank you in advance, Stephen RagerYou should buy in personal names, refi in personal names, and then contribute to LLC?

I really appreciate your contributions to the community, I've learned a lot from your insight. 

Cash flow wise, it only really makes sense to do the deal with that bonus units cashflow contribution.  

Thanks for your contribution.

I don't know the property, but you are paying 60k, and asking them to contribute $6k, which means they are now really netting $54k (or 10% less), so it might be a deal killer off the top. 

Was scary timing but in the end I think it worked in our favor as Covid contributed to somewhat of housing supply shortage as well as increased demand in larger rural properties with people wanting to flee the cities.
