Partnership

by | Feb 6, 2026

In real estate and business law, a partnership is a voluntary association of two or more persons who agree to carry on a business or venture together. The parties share in the management of the enterprise and participate in its profits and losses according to their agreement.

Partnerships are commonly used in real estate investment and development to combine capital, expertise, and resources. Each partner typically acts as an agent of the partnership and may bind the partnership within the scope of its business activities.
