great to meet you here my partner lives in the Seattle area as well you dabled in land always looking for a good land project to market.

Whatever you do, make sure you use a good attorney in Oklahoma who specializes in real estate and understands investor transactions.Or, and I'm tried of typing now so I won't go into great detail, you could possibly do a Joint Venture with your mom where she (with you as a partner) sells the house to someone else on owner financing, gets a down payment, and then finances the rest at around 9% for 15 years, but you agree that you will find the buyer and manage the payment collections, dealing with the buyer, possible foreclosure, etc., in return for X% of the cashflow.

Spread your risk, if you are young, experienced, old, novice does not matter RE investing is all about doing your homework, working with a good contact, partner, operator.

I have been in multiple markets over the past few years, meeting like-minded individuals who would love to partner up on real estate deals.

My business partner was flabbergasted.  

I'm looking for $150,000, which would provide enough of an income stream that would let me do this full time.I'm open to traditional and non traditional loans, investments, financial partners, or any other ideas that may be out there. 

But im kind of nervous to start on my own thats why id prefer a partner!

I can't put my life on hold any longer, and I always file jointly for taxes with my partner, if that helps.I heard about the 10% witholding, and that it can be avoided if necessary, but I don't know how I'd go about rolling the sale of a UK property to another person in the UK when I think, for a 1031, it has to go via an intermediary who, I'm guessing, is in the US.

There is a site that reviews/rates turn key providers that would help with your diligence.An other option may be to partner with some one here in the area where you want to invest and they could be your boots on the ground sort to speak.

It is set up as a partnership, 60% me 40% other partner.
