I've got the tenants lined up, and am planning to find and secure the deal.My longer term goal is to be financially free in 10 years or less and work to grow the business because I want to -- not because I have to.In my spare time I primarily enjoy cycling, hiking, traveling, and excellent food.I look forward to networking and meeting some awesome like-minded people here on BP!

I told her that the lease will be month to month and the first month rent and security deposit is required at the start of the lease.

Do I need to contact a securities attorney and create some kind of real estate fund, or can this be done with a regular business or real estate attorney?
