The asset protect that you are referring to is commonly solved by forming an LLC.  

Well review your landlord tenant laws for your state.. usually a month to month tenancy is only 30 day notice required prior to the 1st of the month.. written, mailed, a copy left also at front door.So your 60 day notice is very generous, I'd restate and give her another copy of that, let her know you'll provide reference.

As a current tenant, what about the company is making you stay and what about it could cause you to not refer a friend?

@Iverem RoseYou are probably referring to 475.43.

Just shoot me a PM and I can refer you to a few of them.

I can also help with vendors, as I joined a local real estate club which provides references to local handyman, contractors, and offers some discounts.I'm looking to connect with there BP members since this forum has been really helpful in my investing.  

@Michaela G. when you are talking about undocumented, are you referring to people who do not have citizenship or a green card? 

I wanted to ask the BP community in southern California if anyone knows of any good and trustworthy contractors, engineers, or architects that you could refer to help us with this attic conversion?

Can someone refer me to attorney in Belize who understands real estate development?  

They will also refer you to a mortgage broker that would be able to assist you in your purchase.
