  • Real estate advice – Many landlords and real estate investors don’t realize it, but they run businesses, even if they only have one rental. Like other businesses, your business needs a strong structure and operation to succeed. Surge gives you business strength. Our law firm knows you need reliable advice in legal and business areas, so we offer you a team of experts who stay with you and your business. You get the benefits of unlimited Q&A by email, tons of real estate advice, discounts, and more with Surge memberships. Check out our Momentum Membership to learn more.
  • LLC formation – by compartmentalizing risk into one or more LLCs, you can help avoid losing everything with one mistake. But forming an LLC is not enough! You need a solid operating agreement—the legal document that controls how the LLC is managed, and you need to avoid issues that can pierce the corporate veil
  • Quitclaim deeds and property transfers – if you already own rental property that is not in an LLC, we can help you transfer it
  • Landlord and tenant issues – laws favor renters and are changing all the time. As a landlord, you need to ensure that you’re following the law. This begins with a well-drafted lease that meets your individual needs and may help avoid evictions, cure or quit letters and a host of other risks
  • Real estate contracts – we have access to a variety of pre-made forms and can customize them or write special agreements from scratch. This could be a contract for sale (usually heavily customized), pet policy (Iowa had new precedent in 2020), sales/purchase agreement, reviewing agreements you get from contractors or suppliers, or any landlord tenant contract needed.

Ask us anything! If you have a question, we can help you find the answers.
