Need help buying a Turnkey property

[Phil P.]

Hello all,

Looking for some guidance from the community. I'm looking to submit an offer for a turnkey property in Indy (currently tenant-ed) and have the following questions: 

Since I won't be represented by a Real Estate agent, I'm looking to work with a RE atty. to help me drafting the offer letter. This is the right move right? Anyone have any experience with a reliable RE Atty. in Indy (property is in Hamilton county if that matters) ?

This will be my first attempt at REI so I'm planning to bring with me a handyman/inspector to go with me when I walk through the property. Is this overkill (since there will be inspection anyway as part of the closing process)? Again, anyone have any reference with an inspector in Indy?

Any guidance/feedback is appreciated.

Thanks in advance and more power to all.
