Are there any probate experts in Maryland?

So I'm looking for ways to take advantage of my current position and move towards growing the portfolio into one that produces some income for myself and family, AND allows me to move towards bigger & bigger properties.Thanks in advance for any insight!

We've learned on our own, we've learned a ton from BP, and we've been able to discuss topics with people in the area (local experts) who we've been able to get in front of.  

I’m looking for some insight on lead paint.From what I understand, as long as it’s not peeling, you can just paint over it.

weve been together 5 years and have 2 children but one never knows what could happen. we are just trying to get as many 3 families as possible for now and hopefully be able to have 1 or 2 of our wives not have to work full time then save up and try a flip or two with an 'expert' investor friend we have.

From everything I've read, this should be covered by a landlord insurance policy that covers damage done by tenants (specifically, this tends to be categorized as Vandalism because the tenant is knowingly doing damage to your property).Here are some photos of the aftermathtldr; A tenant smoking meth cost my colleague over $25,000.The key takeaways here I believe are: 1) get a good insurance policy, being stingy might cost you years worth of profit, 2) screen your tenants well and inspect frequently (especially for lower class properties), and 3) be prepared for unexpected costs, this might be a rarer case but **** happens.Also I'm not a lawyer or insurance expert so you should consult professionals with regards to your state laws and local insurance policies to figure out how to cover yourself from a situation like this.I'm interested to hear if any of you have had to deal with something similar and also any suggestions you might have.

I had an engineer over last week who told me that in order for my retrofit to be code compliant (Chapter A3) we will have to add an additional shear wall under the house, which will be big $$$.I'm currently working through my options, and was hoping to get some insight from the forum on what my best path forward is.1) Do nothing and leave the house as is.

Talk to CPAs and Lawyers that are experts on these nonprofit issues.

Thanks for the insight
