@Masha Rizzi I have been using Holly Graves from Paula Mclean and been very happy with the results. If you tell her you are a PM and give her multiple properties to protest she might cut you a deal. For me she charges me 35%.

@Sebastien Hitier I am a US citizen, but I manage and work for an NRA investor. You have been extremely helpful to NRA investors with your advice/tips/suggestions. I have some questions regarding business structure and tax implications for NRA investors so I sent you a PM request a few weeks back. Hopefully you see it. Thanks.

@Josh Edelman here in Houston, for a 5 tons unit it costs me about $5 - 6K for unit and labor. Get more quotes. Find someone who owns the business himself, not those big HVAC companies.

I probably would rent to them, but would ask for a double deposit
I just signed the lease with them yesterday. I asked for 2 months deposit, they came back and offered 1 month deposit, first 2 months, and last month rent. So I took it and signed the lease with them yesterday. The liens are with the husband only and he is going to do a side job coaching 1 on 1 soccer lesson too so I feel they will be able to make rent. Thanks for chiming in.
Yep. They deposited one shot of $9500 to my account yesterday ($2200 x 4, and $700 pet fee for 2 pets) so I guess they do have enough in savings.

@Nathan Faselt thanks for sharing. Can I ask how much they charged you for initial set up? And how much is annual fee?
I have been watching Mark Kohler recently, I just saw his YouTube about HSA yesterday. That is why I want to open up a HSA account now.

Hi BP community,
Does anyone have a self directed HSA account? If yes, who do you have it with? I am thinking of opening up a HSA account and I am looking at Directed IRA (Mark Kohler) and it seems they charge a fee for everything, that will beat the savings I will get from tax saving from having the account. How is your experience with your HSA account? Do you have to pay a fee each time you make contribution or take distribution?
Thanks.

Everything checks out with the exception of the lien? I’d say, it’s probably okay. Take a look at their paystubs to see if there is a garnishment, if not, then they probably are still in process of disputing and resolution.
Totally agree.
