That way, you’re protecting yourself both legally and operationally.If something were to go wrong down the line, being able to show that you followed your objective criteria can help you defend your decision.

If I need to run a marketing operation to any extent to find deals, it may not be worth it compared to more passive options like investing in the S&P 500.Maybe I’m missing something.

Something to consider after you get an appraisal. 

I am looking for something more modular, temporary and easy to move.

Would something like that work? 

I am aware of Crexi, Bizbuysell, and Loopnet and reach out when I see something for sale on those sites.

Sorry...but not signing something that could be enforced in the future that goes against my business model.   

I’ve been learning a bit on my own and now I’m trying to figure out how to get to that first deal maybe wholesaling or something buy and hold.

treat it like a business transaction. split it by percentage of investment. then if someone is living in it they are paying rent, if someone is managing it they get a mangement fee. treat it as if it was any other partner or third party. do not give credit or more equity for someone doing something, as it typically does not end well especially when expectations are not being met.
