Hello BP community,

Just want to say thanks to @Joshua Dorkin, @Brandon Turner and many of you. I have been on this site for one year now as a Pro member and ended up cancelling Sirius because all I've listened to is BP podcasts and audiobooks in my car for 1 year. Thank you to everyone for your help along the way, especially Josh and Brandon for making it easy to learn and always taking the time whether it's Podcast #10 or #210 to stop and explain things again and again. It makes a difference. I am closing on my first deal, a duplex, next week here in Maryland. I would not be here without this site.  Thanks BP. My wife and 1-year-old daughter say thank you, too.

For the forum readers, my question is this: Where do you find a lease other than on the BP files page and one that is tailored to your state? I am inheriting a tenant on a month to month who has been there for 3 years and pays on time, so I haven't been too worried. Now we are a week out. I've been looking on the BP files pages for leases and have something coming together thanks to Marcia Maynard and others and addendums, but I don't have the main document. I have joined the local landlord association but they don't meet again till August which is too late. Any suggestions would be appreciated as always.  Thanks BP!
