We are now two days away from our third closing date and the underwriter has asked for numerous documentation in the previous days that was already in the file and had to be walked through the file by the loan processor to show hime where each piece was located. 

A good mastermind group- with several people that have a call in every few weeks to discuss issues with the facilitator, and then they meet up several times a year to do work in person would be a solid improvement to this segment of the business.

@Michael A Pierson  Sorry for the confusion I may have created with my post.I tend to use the word "provider" as a general term to describe those that primarily assist you in facilitating a self-directed IRA (such as consulting, helping you set up LLCs, offering legal and/or tax advice, selecting a custodian or TPA, etc) but do not actually handle and disperse the funds used to make the investment.
