@Katie L. she wants to understand if she should form a separate legal entity, and if so what kind and in which state.

She owns and rents out her house in Austin. She lives in San Diego.

She would like recommendations on RE CPAs for her situation.  Thoughts?

@Kevin Grinstead- Thx for the recommendation!  I have found several home inspectors in the area that go by Perkins.  Could you tag someone or provide a website link?

@Matt M.- Thanks for the recommendation. I shot them an email :) 

@Bill S. I still have been unsuccessful at using the search method to find Home Inspectors in Denver or Colorado.  Do you have any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks Bill! I actually tried to figure out how to find any home inspectors on the network before posting this but I didn't have any success. If you know of any I would be grateful if you could connect us.

I have a friend who recently become a REI when she moved from Austin to San Diego and started renting out her SFR. I am looking for RE CPA recommendations for her as she is wanting to make sure to protect her assets and do taxes correctly.

I just moved here from Austin to be closer to family and start in REI. I'd like to get into an industry that will: 1) make me a better REI for myself and my partners, 2) qualify me for conventional mortgages, and 3) pay my bills.

I'm considering becoming a home inspector.  Thoughts/advice welcome.  Thx!

I'm new to the Denver Area, and I almost have a property under contract.  Can anyone recommend their top home inspectors in the area?

@Carl Fischer I really appreciate that advice. I have copied it into a separate file, so I can walk through it with my partner.

@Drew Fein I'm all for that....and you're an attorney!  I'd love to touch base on the phone or schedule a consult.  My contact info is below, and I sent you a C request. I'd love to know prices and advice moving forward.

@Jake Hottenrott Thanks so much!  Yes, I have had a hard time getting RE attorney recommendations.  Do you have any in Colorado by chance.  They few I've contacted haven't reached back.  I at least want to inform my partner on the basics, even if it's not written up yet. 

Thanks!
