Finding an attorney the hardest part?

[Irwin Haddox]

I have some contracts I have put together from samples I found on bigger pockets and elsewhere but I want them reviewed by a professional lawyer with wholesale experience before I use them.   

Every lawyer I call does not even know about assigning real estate contracts to cash buyers in exchange for a assignment fee. They have 0 experience in it because none of them were involved in this kind of transaction apparently. I have called around 20 lawyers so far.

Has this been the same for you? How did you select a lawyer to review your contracts?

Meeting people doing class C multifamily in houston was likely the best thing that happened to me for growth. And they've become good friends. But when I needed an attorney (or anything) a simple email would get my answer

I posted in wholesale area of bigger pockets. Where else do I meet people? REI clubs charge 150 dollars to talk to people. Unless I can just walk in I suppose. Any better ideas?

 I'd run into people in the buy/hold/flip/sell game by bidding on stuff, learning who the players were, who was buying what.  Who was selling. Who I'd lose bids to, etc.  I'd email them, talk shop, invite to lunch/drinks.  Build a network.  It's not hard man.

And if $150 is a short cut to meeting a big group of people, it would seem money will spent.   Hell, a friend of mine hooked me up with his 'trash guy', I save about $1,500/month now just because I get cheaper trash pickup.  Another one told me a trick to save $300 on each close (which isn't much on $1m deals but whatever -- $300 is $300.  

Point is, get out there.  Meet and greet.
