We work with silent partners on residential new construction here in SW Florida, so I’ll share how these are typically structured from the operator side.Most passive partners come in one of two ways:1️⃣ Debt Position (Most Passive)Fixed return, secured by the land or build, no decision involvement — paid at sale or refi.2️⃣ Equity / JVProfit split after completion.

I am writing this to share my experience as a passive investor in an MOB fund managed by Ridgeline Capital Partners.

At the same time, I would be nervous to partner with someone that I didn't know really well.

I considering bringing in a partner to put up closing costs and perhaps putting up money for incidentals such as unforseen repairs and such.

I have a partnership set up where I am the 49% partner and the manager of the LLC.

These are nice for the area, updates flooring, hvac, electrical, roofs, some having granite countertops etc.I would love to be able to tackle this deal but it looks like I would need to bring in a partner.

One question I ask every investor we work with is this:“How do you typically evaluate potential financing partners?”

One thing I’ve enjoyed lately is helping connect the right people locally.I’m not actively buying right now, but knowing who actually closes vs who talks has made a big difference for everyone involved.Curious, what makes someone a “must call” partner for you?

One of the things that we run into a lot when we're speaking with potential partners/investors is unrealistic expectations.
