Hey! Looking to close on my first duplex on a few weeks! Once the first thing y’all recommend to do/focus on once closings. Aside from giving the units some tcl and getting them closer to market rents!

     Do yourself a favor: buy "Every Landlord's Legal Guide" by NOLO. Written by attorney investors, it's full of practical advice pertaining to management of investment property, has sample forms that can be edited, and - most importantly - they tell you what your primary state laws are and where you can read them. It's updated every year and is the best $40 you'll spend as a Landlord. There is one book for 49 states and a separate book for California.
