A CPA can audit financial statements (most don't do assurance work because of overhead and compliance costs).

You may wish to confirm that the new 401k provider will handle the ongoing compliance support such as any required 5500 filing (e.g. 5500-EZ for a one-participant plan with assets in excess of $250,000), any required tax reporting (e.g. 1099-r in the event of a distribution or in-plan Roth conversion), mandatory plan updates and amendments, etc.4.

This almost always necessitates the NRA file a 1040NR to reclaim the excess withheld, further adding to the compliance structure and cost.A lot of hedge fund managers don't like to have NRAs come into their LPs specifically because they find out about these obligations during tax time and don't like what it does to their compliance bills.A "blocker", i.e. establishing a US C Corp between the NRAs and the US investments, does solve this problem, but again, all factors need to be considered for a holistic approach -- minimization of US tax liability, Canadian tax liability, and compliance fees in both countries.

so long as it makes sense as a real estate transaction.What matters is that:There is no direct or indirect benefit between the plan and a disqualified party.The note instrument is in compliance with state lending laws and therefore enforceableThe issue I see is that if there is a primary lender on the project, then the plan is going to be holding a 2nd position lien, which would be pretty risky on a flip. 

I totally agree with you we should do it ourselves. the only reason I use agent is that I try to avoid some legal/compliance issue, for instance, accidentally using some discriminatory words in the listing. once I know how to avoid these mistakes and how the process looks like, I will do it myself.Originally posted by @Joe P.

Make sure your rental criteria is in compliance with non-discrimnation laws and the landlord-tenant laws for your jurisdiction. 

Even if it is "Her house" If she had no will to pass the property onto someone specific first her spouse then her children would automatically (whether they want it or not) assume the legal possession, and therefore legal responsibility for compliance with the law.I am not a lawyer but please by all means contact one and they will almost certainly tell you the same thing.Again I'm not a lawyer, but as far as I know while the ticket may have your name on it you as an individual are not responsible.

We funded the rehab by raising the money from investors to cover the down payment, closing costs, syndication legal fees (SEC Compliance Requirements), acquisition fees, and the rehab according to our projected costs and upgrade plan for the submarket. $400k of the $1.785m we raised was specifically earmarked for the rehab.

. - Not sure if this applies to you, but a few of our properties are rented through Sec8 which requires another level of process and compliance that we didn’t want to have to learn and keep up with.

If it has been deleaded, you will want to have a "Post Compliance Lead Inspection" done and bring it up to current standards to protect yourself.
