Where to find legal information?

Hello all!

I'm new to the forum (this is my first post) and I have to say it has been an excellent source of information regarding things of the real estate nature, and also in general.

I'm currently a college student, should be done with an engineering degree in a year (cross fingers) and would eventually like get into real estate.

Right now I'm trying to get as educated as I can about things, and one of the recurring themes I notice in this forum is how people can get SCREWED if they dont cover their a$$ leagally.

Where can I find the entirety of real estate/rental law? Should I hit up the library, or is there a place online I should check?

Thanks!

Drew

Drew,

The hardest part is real estate law is very spread out, and I do not know if one single place to find what you would want to read. There are federal laws, state laws, local laws, and even rules regarding certain neighborhoods. I have most of those resources for my area, but you will probably have to track down each of the sources. Somewhere I have the info on most pertinent federal laws, if I can find a link I will post it.
