I have legal background, billing, office and executive assistant type experience, and now many years of marketing experience as well.

But I am looking for a local CPA.I see no compelling reason for that. 10 years ago, most of the local clients of my firm liked to come to our Houston office.

Call the offices of some of the custodians that interest you and see how the phones are answered.

With a push to bring more manufacturing back to the U.S. and more employees returning to office work, there will be a greater need for mass transit solutions rather than building more roads lowering the quality of living if you want that SFH with a yard.

Are you asking as a buyer, or as a loan officer?

I had this issue before, and I wish my agent told me to accept cashiers check instead of a personal check, and I had to resort to hiring a lawyer to scare the tenant with a letter from his office.

A friend of mine rented her property near a base and connected with military housing officers at the Family Support Center, which helped secure steady tenants.

Quote from @Marshall Robins: Do you know what the Loan office with AgSouth meant by 25% down?

There is a "sponsor exemption" but that only allows an unlicensed person to raise money but it cannot be more than 50% of their duties and the pay they receive cannot be based on how much they raised.If you have never raised $, a family office will be off the table as they typically want the company to ahve atleast $50-$100M in assets.
