Andrew Fidler City of Toledo Violation Letters, seem to be a hot year for them
21 February 2017 | 4 replies
This stops the issue from escalating and now that I've done what I said I'd do it's a good relationship.The procedure for the City seems to be:A Violation letter with a specific time to resolve (24 hrs, 72 hrs, etc)A second letter which is a $75 Fine, Notice of Liability TMC 1726A third letter which is a $250 FineA court summons forcing you to hire a lawyer, attend court at least twice, resolve the issue and then pay court fees and fines.I presume if you don't attend the summons then they put a warrant out and place the fines and fees against your property meaning it will be seized if not resolved.At the City's discretion they will themselves resolve a situation they deem urgent...you will receive a large bill in the mail for their time and efforts, something like $300 an hour for four hours time plus materials and disposal.I have properties in a self directed IRA, which means the owner on file is the administrating firm...there is a two week delay between a notice being issued (yes a 72 hour notice) and my getting it.

Brian Filmore What is your opinion of Trump affecting RE investors confidence?
11 March 2017 | 32 replies
Not sure if the fact denouncing new administration will wake up to it eventually, but in my area contractors are very pricey already and further price increases will probably lead to reduced economic activity and ultimately hurt consumers even outside of the construction trades. 
Mukesh Yadav Looking for feedback on Self-Directed IRA custodians

I agree with @Curt Smith, checkbook control is almost essential depending on your type of investing and a Solo 401k sure beats an IRA if you are eligible.Contributions limits are roughly 10x higher, there is no custodial requirement for the 401k, you can take participant loans, you don't need the additional expense and administration of an LLC to have checkbook control, there is a built in-Roth component, a spouse can participate, there are additional tax benefits, there is generally greater privacy, and the plans are often quicker to setup and cost less money over time especially compared to most IRA LLCs.
