There is a complicated way around this that involves changing the distribution schedule so the contractor total comes out as a draw.

I have an attorney now and if we get to a common ground I'll definitely be getting him involved. 

I'm definitely ready to pay for an attorney, in a situation that involves me and any other party.

Not much for finding you a good deal.Understand involving a realtor is like calling an attorney and asking for advice. 

@Chaim F.Where are you currently involved?

We want to be as close as we can for everyone involved.  

I realize with the latter plan there is more risk involved but I would also be collecting rents starting immediately from turnkey properties I was planning on buying anyways?

Such as, if the tenant; doesn't pay rent, fails to vacate at the end of the lease term, damages property, violates a condition of a written lease, is involved in criminal activity, etc.. 

I think its great that our community is becoming more educated and involved in real estate.

I'm totally new to this and have been consuming as much information as I can through the site, podcast, and books, but I've never felt more motivated and I'm excited to get involved in the BiggerPockets community (once I educate myself a little more, first)!
