If some of the methods don't work for you, such as as investing out of state, then you need to continue to learn.As mentioned, the 5% HYSA is just some sort of default answer. 

My only concern is:  do you think its sort of pierces the corporate  veil though?

What sort of info is missing out there?

Sort of. 

As for the rate, it really depends on what sort of buyer you are looking to solicit.Good luck.

It's going to be 2027-28 before things are sorted out.  

I am also a real estate agent in the area and constantly have people looking for this sort of thing, so it would be likely I'd be able to sell it to my own client in the future.What am I missing or should I be thinking about here?

My goal in posting this is to see if there's anyone in the Dallas/North Texas area that would be interested in starting some sort of regular meetup with me where we can share ideas, information, etc.

You would have to pay for the consultation, there are no free consultations for this sort of matter.You may also provide additional details here to receive free advice. 

I am looking for a step-by-step checklist or something of the sort of what I need to do.
