    I would seriously consider if you really want to partner with your friend. Is there anything that he is contributing to the partnership that you cannot do yourself? Can you hire out what he has to offer for 15 bucks an hour? 

    Maybe you just want to partner on the first deal or two. Most partnerships fail. If you do partner, take if for a trial fun for the first few months and then re-evaluate.

    Wholesaling is definitely not easy, it take hours and hours and then more hours of researching. After that it takes hours and hours of marketing (which also costs a bit of money)

    After you market the calls start to come in then it takes hours and hours of vetting prospects and then researching the houses and the neighborhoods you are getting calls about. After all that hopefully the deals start to come in.  Of course finding actual deals and then finding your end buyer. 

    I quick explanation of wholesaling in a nutshell but there is plenty of info on this site.
