I have a piece of land for sale for $6,200.    

Any advice you could offer on the specifics of the business piece, specific to partners doing everything 50/50 would sincerely be appreciated.

Make sure that the property management is top notch, as this can be the most crucial piece for the long term success of your investment.

Thanks a lot Sachin and Sam for welcoming and good pieces of advice.Yes, I've been to some US cities however these for the moment are out of scope of investor interest (NY, Seattle).

Driving for dollars aka driving around looking for vacant houses is a very good method, but takes a lot of time for little volume.I'd start by reading up a bit more and starting to get your pieces in order.

Great piece of advice thank you!

Thanks for that awesome piece of advice, I'm going to get started on that right now!

I think you put your finger on a key piece of the puzzle when you talked about what you can make on a job compared to what who have to pay someone else work on your rental.I haven't had a "job" for some time. 

Generate a little money, then use some of it to...Begin doing low-cost marketing (postcards, door hangers, etc.) to attract sellers, and then start wholesaling yourself.Identify and talk to as many serious buyers as you can, then go back to that established investor or wholesaler from Step 1 and arrange a joint venture wherein you'll help them sell their deals (to buyers you bring) for a piece of the wholesale fee.These three tactics alone could get you learning the business tomorrow, if you wanted!

(In hindsight should have paid minimum on that and paid of cc debt).Third, I finally sold a piece of vacant property we had and received about 50k after fees and mortgage paid.
