Starting Steps - Contracts and Documents

[Miles Stanley]

I’m here in Texas and I’m needing to know how I go about getting my contracts and other documents in order before proceeding. Do I need to have an arsenal of contracts at the ready depending on what type of transaction I’m dealing with? Do I rely on a RE attorney for all of this? Texas has the Texas Real Estate Commission website which has contracts ready for download by the public...but I am a little leery of just downloading and signing without proper counsel.

I’m interested in buy and hold and possibly flipping later.

I’m new, VERY excited about getting into the game, but I am full of nothing but questions and uncertainty at this point.

Thank you very much!
