Form a Limited Partnership to Raise Money to Buy Your Properties


A Limited Partnership is a popular way to raise money for income real estate. In such a partnership the limited partners invest anywhere from $5,000 to $5 million each per participation to enable the partnership to buy, and operate, investment real estate.

You, as General Partner, run the partnership, receiving a salary and other employee benefits. And you are usually awarded one participation as your reward for developing the partnership's Business Plan and running it on a daily basis. For most Limited Partnerships you do not have to spend eight hours a day operating it. Thus, you can have other business activities you can conduct for additional income.
