Is there anything that you do in your professional career that can help you in real estate?

@Jake Fugman I don't have any referrals in the space you're looking for but you can just punch in "YOUR CITY or AREA" plus "ATTORNEY" into the search window above and check out a few people's past endorsements to get a broader scope of professionals and to zero in on someone that fits your ticket.

Like adam mentioned coming from commercial real estate or other backgrounds notes may seem like a cup of tea since many in those backgrounds have dealt with real estate professionals and know what IRR is and how to run a financial model.

Professionally, I'd figure out what you need & build and then "save" (aka "not use up") additional land for the NEXT expansion versus utilizing it for extra-wide driveways & aisles.Also, is anyone helping you design this?
