Attorney recommendation San Antonio Texas. So the situation is I bought a property about nine months ago. The seller signed an affidavit stating that the tenants were behind X dollars. I hired an attorney that was recommended to be very knowledgeable on evictions. The Attorny took all the Covid required steps for eviction. We get up to the eviction and the tenant/squatter had hired an attorney and produced some sort of one page unfulfilled purchase agreement that was not legible for a year or two back . The squatter’s was able to throw the case by recommending a Different Court to the judge. Our attorney seemed to have a plan, but has been putting me off and has been given me promises that he would re-file and make a counter move for half a year now. In the meantime over half a year has expired and I have been making payments and providing free rent. I’m not here to badmouth our current attorney, but doing nothing is basically costing big-time. Can someone recommend an attorney That can help me? The property is in San Antonio Texas.

Going through the county eviction records has taught me

a) Good property manager/owner files for eviction 3rd day after delayed payment

b) (Insert reason here) property managers/owner files for eviction after 4+ months

Both cases it usually takes about 3 weeks for the eviction to go through once filed and the date for hearing is set. (This true for both Texas counties I've browsed in)

If you've found yourself a professional tenant, the eviction process might delay by a couple months at best. That's when I'd look to hire an attorney.

Hey Ben,

Welcome to Biggerpockets.

If you use the search tool and marketplace you can find several lenders and experienced multifamily investors.

Follow what they do, reach out to them and ask your questions when the time is right.

But before you do all that I recommend updating your profile info so that when they get a friends request or message request they'll see you're a person and not just another spammer.

Looks to me that you're already able to close deals and get a lot of work done. I'm sure you'll find this platform is a great resource to find what you're searching for once you've learned how to use it.

I know @Mitch Messer is looking in Lubbock and might be able to share some insights.

I'm curious, why Lubbock instead of other small Texas cities?

I'd love to learn more about this property as my wife and I looking to move to texas but we don't have the privelage yet of FHA loans due to our visa status.

How'd you discern the ~180k asking price?

I'd recommend asking @Bruce Lynn for anything real estate related in DFW as he's got a lot of experience in the area and might be able to help you out.

Heya @Logan Kidwill

Congrats on the new job!

I've texted you a couple of people that have helped me in the area in a PM.

I'd also join the San Antonio REI groups on FB.

Another thing I've found is there's at least one REIA that we're looking to join when we make the move there that I can link you to. I can't vouch for it right now as I haven't been to their meetings yet.

Having said that, connecting with other investors is the top helpful tip from most BPP episodes I've listened to.

Looking forward to hearing your progress and following your journey.

All the best

Sam
