Not sure I’d want to defend this one should the issue ever come up.  

PM’s I’m not defending the unlicensed plumber but that’s how so many of those companies make margin, if you want someone licensed the easiest way is to self manage a property (I have a duplex 1.5 away I self manage, have a great plumber, he’s literally replacing a hot water heater tomorrow while I’m 1.5 hours away) as far as the future, it’s really important to try to take the emotion out which I know can be difficult, is this a property that has had issues but can be corrected and become a profitable and relatively easy property to manage.

I have personally done both sides of things; ran PM biz grass-root's, and ran PM brokerage in a franchise system, a big BIG name one. 1 universal truth that stands in BOTH is your primary existence as a PM, franchisee or grass-root's, is that your a full-time "vanguard" of defending against the "WTF's" and in being a "Fire-Fighter" putting out the "fires" of the various "WTF's" that happen.     

Well worth the cost.Plus he can defend us in there ever is an issue.

In another open forum someone attempted to defend their Facebook platform by stating that it was private and completely secure…Standing in front of 100+ people I said that.. “ I truly believe that you truly believe that”… but you all see the extreme financial disadvantage I hold refusing to use the REIAs communication system.

That being said, I can't defend Houston and the like... every time I'm down there I'm in awe of the residents.

Here are some things you need to consider when selecting a cost segregation company:Will they defend my report to the IRS if I am audited?

Even with a LLC, it still comes back to insurance to protect your assets, especially when it comes to legal fees otherwise you'll go broker defending your LLC.Note:  I keep seeing comments about single member LLC's providing limited protection. 

Now we need to factor in the other players, defenders, 3rd parties (coaches, refs, fans, etc).

@Cullen EckertYour legal reference while being a nice try is really invalid because the court overturned it because governing docs did not include it whereas if it is a deed restriction that is completely different from that caseIt doesn’t mean you will win or lose but be prepared for a hefty legal fight that could cost you tens of thousands to defend and the HOA going to make your life.
