Elmira and Waverly are on the New York side of the border.

I am just on the other side of the Idaho border in Hayden.

or do I need them to be local to where I am closing deals.My attorney, that I used in the past is now deceased...

I'm a transplant from Canada, moved here (Bay Area, CA) about a year ago, and taking up permanent residence in the US.I have an investment property and other things (i.e retirement accounts and so on) back in Canada, looking for a CPA here that can help me with the straight forward stuff (filing taxes every year and so on) as well as advisory from time to time (whether it's dealing with cross border strategies to minimize the tax bites, or the same with US investment properties).I have an accountant in Canada as well so this person doesn't necessarily have to be say, a CGA/CA or whatever in Canada as well (but super bonus points if they are and can do both my US / Canadian returns!)

Since you're near the border you should join us tonight at our real estate investing networking group!

Also, I recommend Harry Borders as an attorney and for closings.

You may want to have a look south of the borders!

What if these people don't live in the home of the deceased relative, how are they going to get my letter?

An executor is merely someone who is obligated to carry out the wishes or will of a deceased party.

I would recommend you to give a call to Harry Borders at Borders and Borders.
