I don't have any of my team assembled so looking for an attourney, mortgage broker if they still exist, a real estate broker, as well as an accountant.

I have no intentions of leaving my day job anytime soon, so I think one of the biggest challenges for me (on top of finding great deals) will be assembling a competent team that I can trust.

Right now I have 50% of a team assembled to do a flip.
