There are countless benefits offered by forming a real estate partnership. However, there are also potential downsides if you aren’t careful.

Protecting yourself in the partnership should be a top priority, and some tips that will help you do this can be found here.

Choose the right partner

You need a partner who complements your abilities. To determine who will suit this role, you need to know what your strengths and weaknesses are. Take time to conduct a self-evaluation, so you know what you are looking for in a partner.

Outline the role and expectations of each partner

A partnership will only be successful if you take the time to outline the role of each person and what is expected. This is the information you should include in a partnership agreement. Some of the specific things that your partnership agreement should include are:

  • Who is responsible for the finances?
  • Who is responsible for marketing?
  • Who will negotiate the deals?

It’s important to outline the role of each partner in any possible scenario that arises. This is going to ensure that both parties know what their roles are and reduce the possibility of disputes.

Keep things simple

While it’s important to be detailed and specific, you don’t need to go overboard. The goal is to have a successful real estate partnership, which means knowing your role, handling your responsibilities and trusting your partner to do the same. Don’t be overly strict with what should happen on a day-to-day basis, as this can lead to bad blood in the partnership.

Establishing a real estate partnership

When you partner with someone to invest or purchase real estate, it can be a beneficial situation. However, you have to take steps to protect yourself and your interests along the way.
