Consider consulting a CPA and attorney to address tax implications, liability, and ensure proper documentation for your multifamily investment partnership.

My question is can anyone point in the direction of someone who could represent me in this matter maybe a lawyer or attorney, or someone who knows the fire code and who can be clear and concise on what I need.

I would say if you're looking to invest, the first thing I would do is to build your CORE 4 which consists of having a great realtor, contractor, property manager, and attorney in whatever areas you decide to invest in.

Quote from @V.G Jason: Quote from @Marie Copul: I am an attorney.  

Sometimes folks overlook how real prce apprecation can be impacted by having acreage that’s not typical in suburban areas.In Phoenix, where I’m based, a lot of us collaborate with local probate attorneys who know about hidden opportunities that never see the open market.

Petersburg, build a team with real estate agents, property managers, contractors, lenders, and title company/closing attorneys.

Attorney?

We did all the research and comps ourself and did not hire either an appraiser or an attorney. 

Contact a local attorney who has experience in this type of thing.

So, the financing party can hire an attorney, get a judgment and that judgment is acceptable for filing at the county.
