Hi investors in Northern Kentucky or Cincinnati. I am writing as a new investor. I own one duplex that I purchased in November, and am now in the process of looking for a second property. I found a deal that I believe would be a good buy for potential investors, however I unfortunately do not have the down payment saved up at this point. The property is a duplex in Northern Kentucky with significant cash flow potential. I am hoping to partner with another investor or discuss other options. Please message me if you have any interest in chatting! Thanks.

@Chris Eden I would think most investors would need more details on the property in question to make a decision of if it fits their buying criteria. What value are you bringing to the deal other than the deal itself?

Jim - Thanks for the response. I understand, and I do of course plan to talk in more detail during one-on-one conversations. I am always hesitant to put too many specifics on a public post, because in my experience it is harder to manage different questions, comments, etc. in that format.
To answer your question: I am bringing the deal, a portion of the down payment, day-to-day management of the property and institutional knowledge of the area. My original plan was to wait until late summer or fall to purchase my next property (because I will have the funds saved at that point for another down payment), but this deal came along so I figured it wouldn't hurt to put it out there!

@Chris Eden , you could always simply wholesale the deal to another investor. This would provide you some extra cash for the down payment on your next property. Hopefully it would be less of a hassle than the "forced" partnership done in a hurry.
