In this short YouTube clip, Nathan Payne discusses the importance of having a hands‑on partner who maintains a strong commitment to a real‑estate venture. He emphasizes that partners should not be excluded from the relationship but should stay actively involved. The conversation uses a dating analogy to illustrate that, just as one would want a partner who is serious and invested, real‑estate collaborators need sufficient "skin in the game"—meaning they have a personal stake or capital at risk—so that the original investors can eventually recover their investment (referred to as "bait"). The core message is that ensuring partners have tangible commitment protects the investors' interests and aligns incentives.

I'd like to work with someone that's hands-on.
Just like we would develop a relationship or a working relationship, I wouldn't want to cut them out.
From our standpoint, it's not so much about cutting your other partner out, like, why are you dating that girl? I'm a little more serious than she is or whatever. It's more of we want to make sure you have enough skin in the game because you've got our bait and we want to get our bait back at some point.
Yeah, that's a good point. I want more than anything to grow in this industry.
