How did you come up with your lease?

[Jimmy Lieu]

Hi,

I am a new REI in Columbus Ohio. I am in the process of reading Managing Rentals by Brandon Turner.

How do you guys come up with your lease to present to tenants? Do you use an attorney or purchase from online legal websites? Also, what if you wanted to add addendums? Do you need to consult an attorney to add this?

I was thinking about possibly asking my realtor for a lease or using it from BiggerPockets. Would this be a good idea?

I've talked a good amount of investors and they've seemed to have used attorneys to help them write their lease agreements! Please help.
