Feeling really inspired to pursue financial freedom and I'm looking forward to getting engaged on the site!

In RI it's attorneys who handle the escrow/closing, rather than title companies.Usually in Rhode Island, if you're using an agent and the standard RIAR (RI Association of Realtors) purchase and sale forms, you wouldn't engage an attorney until your offer is accepted (which in RI is the same as getting a signed P&S back), unless you or the seller is putting something out of the ordinary in the P&S (usually in the additional provisions on the last page but there are a few other places extra language can be added).In that case you might want to bring in your attorney to double check the language you or (especially) the seller are proposing, just so you understand what you'd be committing to.I'm not sure what your connection is to Rhode Island but since your profile says you're in Maryland there are probably some differences between the two states when it comes to real estate.

I've listened to many of the BP podcasts over the years and I'm excited to start engaging with you all!

I worked alongside professionals as a "helper" With pretty much no construction experience, they put me on the dirty grunt work, cleaning rat poop, removing the old toilets, scrubbing down baseboards, etc. but as I was doing that, I was watching every single thing they did, and pestered them with tons of questions on how to do things and different techniques.

I would settle on the business terms first, then engage an attorney to help you decide the best legal structure.

Moreover, If someone does engage in prohibited transactions, how would the IRS ever find out?

@Jamael Chappelle I don't have the contract you are looking for, but do you have your own real estate attorney that you could engage to assist you with this?

The 2nd lender knows I am engaging other lenders and it doesn't bother him but he is likely confident that he may get the business due to his close relationship with my agent.

Then you get a foreign trust account with a bridge trust and when the trigger is engaged by a pre-established threat then the domestic trust moves all assets into the Cook island trust which does not recognize US courts or judgments.

Do you work along side another (experienced) agent in order to learn the ropes from them?
