Hello everyone! I'm excited to finally jump into the forums here on BP. I've been listening to the podcast forever and we have our first rental already, so I'm definitely here to stay. (Took us 2 years of trying to get that first deal, too... got in right when prices were soaring and we were getting bid out by 30 all-cash offers, etc..)

Outside of real estate, I'm a Ph.D. student at UCLA, working with big data in human genetics. I love studying trends and analyzing data to find patterns, which can be useful in RE, too.

Can't wait to connect with others!

The next step, I think, would be to talk to an attorney.

I am looking for answers to the same questions. There is some great info in here, however, there is only so much research you can do on your own, at one point we will need to talk to an attorney who can help evaluate the different options and actually set up the LLC and the trust. Does anyone have any recommendations for a reasonably-priced attorney in the LA area with experience in real estate related asset protection, estate planning and irrevocable living trusts, etc.?
