Syndication Attorney Questions & Referral Request
My two business partners and I are starting a multifamily syndication firm and are in need of some advice regarding syndication attorneys. We will be doing 506b and 506c syndications. I am physically located in Los Angeles, and my partners are located in Washington DC/Maryland. We are investing in large Sunbelt metros (Austin, Dallas, Phoenix, Atlanta, Orlando, etc). I have the following questions about choosing a syndication attorney:
1) Does the attorney need to be located or licensed in the state in which we're doing a deal?
2) Is there any benefit of choosing a local syndication attorney where we live (other than the ability to have an in-person meeting)?
3) In light of the above questions, are there any experienced mulitfamily syndication attorneys that you would recommend for our situation?
Many thanks!
