You can also try and find a mentor/partner (wholesaler/rehabber) at the same time.

@Sarah Miller  a very good HML is invaluable and can be a great partner for many years... think of them as your capital partner if there is money in the deal then do it..

I am looking to get into multi-family investing.I have a business partner who has accredited investor contacts in another state.If I am the one bringing sweat equity to the transaction, finding the property in mystate, but he brings the money. how should this be structured.Help?

I'm hoping Bigger Pockets can help keep my spirits up, guide me in the right direction so I don't loose all our savings and maybe even find me a partner/private money to lessen the burden on this newbie.Sorry for the long post.

I am a partner in a Real Estate flip/rental management company.  

I am looking to network in the NJ/PA areas and find more seasoned investors to partner up with. 

I'd probably offer to partner with the other lot as a sister lot and provide a % of profits for anyone he sends my way. 

@Fantasia BowserYou have been given the proper answer, but on a side note, as it appears you may not be entirely familiar with basic contract law, you may be lacking some critical knowledge in other investing areas too so it would be wise to consider partnering on your first 5 or 6 deals with an active local investor so you can learn how to properly enter and exit a transaction without causing yourself potentially serious ramifications. 

I would like all the senior people that post at BP to put up their best quotes to keep them going every day especially with disappointing circumstances , as an illness, a death , A deal that goes really wrong , A business partner that perhaps is not fairI'll start----There are no money problems.

My wife / business partner on the other hand could not be more different.
