So I run a realtor business with five agents and property management as well. And my attorney

approached me about potentially partnering 50-50 on it. And I'm been against that since I've got

started for many reasons. But just kind of wanted to run it by y'all

and so what y'all thought.

Give us your top couple of reasons why you didn't want to do it.

Just risky.

You never truly know who you're working with.

They could change their mind, you know, down the road or get greedy, get sick.

I mean, many different options that could cause hassles in the future.

Our rule is the only ship won't sales a partnership.

Yeah.

So I find, with the exception of medical practices and law practices,

we coach tens of thousands of small businesses through entree leadership, and we find

almost no partnerships of this type survive 10 years. They don't make it 10 years. And because of a lot of

different things that you just described, sometimes it's not negative things, even. Sometimes it's a

positive thing. But why would your attorney want to buy 50% of your business?

He's been doing law for 10 years now, and he's just kind of looking to grow another

other realm, I guess. Kind of the same way I am just kind of wanting to pick things up and do something a little different than

we've been doing.

I'm sorry, same thing.

You're wanting to do something different?
