Draft with an attorney or create my own?

You have to either get lucky, have an unfair advantage, or do the necessary blocking and tackling to find situations that create deals.

I am also a professional landlord and would be willing to work out a plan to assist you with the management portion of your adventure as well!

Since it is going to be a rental, first concentrate on any items that need maintenance immediately that prevent it from being rented now (creating cash flow)(including all parts to be working, such as HVAC, plumbing, electrical, etc.).
