He has done some big deals.I am going to be doing a podcast with Gene Trowbridge on Thursday.  

@Gene Murashko is your question about whether you can have a two story duplex on the lot or whether you can reuse the utilities?

(per Gene Trowbridge.)In addition, companies like www.regdresources.com will produce all of the legal docs and Form D (except the LLC operating agreement...still have to go to your guy for that) for $5500.

In fact, there is a great book you should read by Gene Trowbridge, titled appropriately, It's a Whole New Business.  

Good books: Gene Trowbridge - I's a whole new BusinessThere are several blog articles on BP about syndication.

It lays out the case for value add plays that apply's to all food groups IMHO.Its a Whole New Business by Gene Trowbridge is essential.The Dummies book is actually good with Peter Conti and Peter HarrisCommercial Real Estate Investing with Dolf De Roos was pretty goodWhat Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know by Frank GallinelliAvoid Lindhal beyond his books which are great i.e. his guru model is full on.Deal Makers Guide by Ray Alcorn is EPIC but pricey.  

I have 2 articles linked here and there are many others: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/10145/73373-op...https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/10145/72118-sy...I would also read It's a Whole New Business, by Gene Trowbridge and Principle of Real Estate Syndication, by Samuel Freshmann. 

An attorney will give you best practices and tell you what's allowed when it comes to structuring a deal, raising capital, rules to follow in general.In terms of the books, I suggest you get "Principles of Real Estate Syndication" by Sam Freshman and Gene Trowbridge "It's a whole new business..."
