I have just put under contract, a 4 plex in Indiana.Trying to be a little proactive, I'm curious on everyone's thoughts on whether I should hire an attorney to look over the lease I created (in which I mean, copied from the resource center here on BP and changed the location) or not.I'd love to hear everyone's take on this but I'm thinking having a lawyer in my corner just makes sense.If that is the case, the real question I have is how to I find the right lawyer?

Either way, there are some maintenance upgrades I'd like to add in the future, like central air, which will help keep the tenants happy, increase potential rental income, as well as overall value. 

Perhaps a nice 1950's built bungalow.Always hire a 3rd party property inspector to give you an unbiased feel for the home.

Hey guys I currently have 30 units locally in South Bay, Los Angeles County, Long Beach etc.  1-2 bedroom units.I was wondering if anyone who has several rental units has converted to air BnB short term rentals.

I currently hire property managers, but am toying with the idea of managing a couple SFH myself. 

This doesnt account for $9.88 water charge per unit per month.Garbage - Since it is over 4 units you need to hire your own service which if you hire Flood Bros they can get you a 2 yarder twice per week for about $120 plus fees.Vacancy - Run 10% on your numbers just to be safe.Lawn - you can go on a place like taskeasy.com to estimate this cost.  

Do you do all your own work or hire people out?

Also are you going to self manage or hire out.

I was considering hiring a professional (based on one of the podcasts I listened to), but I'm not sure where to start.

I am going to hire them to do a home inspection.
