Question is will I need to hire an attorney to handle any and all paperwork for this?

@Sandor LauTo sell your property with creative financing options, hire a Realtor or Creative Finance Specialist in Dallas-Fort Worth.

I think it's okay to not have a deluxe backyard, see what the market is demanding.We didn't want to or have the funds to do a full renovation, Here are some things we did when we got our primary ready to rent:-Tore out fiberglass tub and surround in master bedroom-Had new tub and tile surround put in (felt nicer for primary bedroom suite)-New toilets and all new faucets-Hired guy to resurface all kitchen and bathroom countertops-Took down popcorn ceiling and had resurfaced/ painted-Neutral paint and trim throughout (had different colors all over prior)-changed out washer hook-up valves to prevent issues Things I wish we would've taken care of:-regular yard maintenance hired out and baked into rent-LVP flooring throughout (kept mix of tile and carpet)Just did final walkthrough and got keys this morning for tenant moving out.

- **Property management**: If you plan to hold the property long-term, it may be worth hiring a property manager to handle maintenance, rent collection, and tenant issues, especially since you’re out of state.### 4.

These people are hiring out of country kids by paying $3 per hour  to do the marketing and pocketing all the money they charge us. 

BP and virtually all social media has their crooks trolling the site..

As far as legal advice, anyone in their right mind will tell you to hire an attorney. 

You inspect, and then you hire a good independent home inspector—NOT someone recommended by the seller, a guru, or an agent.Besides, you might find out that you don’t like being a landlord. 

I have been trying to put together a 5 year general 5 year plan (That is the idea, experience being a landlord might mean I hire a PM and time to scale will likely be longer.).
