Purchasing a Multi-Unit Rental Property

One, make sure that you’re being privy to any and all city code violations. Another point is making sure you obtain all tenant estoppel certificates from the seller. Another point is making sure you get a copy of all the lease agreements with each tenant. This also includes addendums, amendments, and any rent increases.

I can’t say enough good things about SNS Law Group. After being involved in a car accident, I was overwhelmed—not just by the physical recovery, but by the thought of dealing with insurance, bills, and the legal process. Edrin, Bijan and Khushboo made navigating my personal injury claim incredibly easy from start to finish.
