Our current plan to continue our journey toward financial independence through RE is to sell the SFH at the beginning of next summer and move into a duplex or a fourplex and self manage the property.

I want to make sure everything in my first deal is legal and protects me in case of any problems.

Partners want financially stable folks that can follow through with obligations.

Hi BP readersLooking for a recommendation - I'm committed to making real estate investing a significant part of our financial portfolio. 

I would be all over it and forgo the partner idea if you have the financials.

The time, effort and risk is not worth anything less plus you need to protect yourself from the times when something or multiple things go wrong.

My financial situation now allows it, so I am looking for as much information as I can to get started.

Working together for financial independence. 

Oh boy they're protected !!!

This lease agreement holds the full weight of a written month to month agreement, without providing you any of the protections given to you under a written lease.
