Hey @Jorge Castillo,I work with an investment firm down in St.

Contact your plan administrator to confirm.If this is an old plan from a former employer then there are many firms who can help, including some on BP.If you are self employed and are the only employee in that entity (except your spouse with some limitations), look into a solo 401k vs a self directed IRA.Good luck.

We already have one firm we're going to interview, but we want to check with at least one or two more. 

Plenty of firms out there to help you with that.   

But until I am "host-worthy" I might as well network and find them because thats my version of fun.

I'm not certain, but if this is your first out of state deal, I would certainly get 3-4 contractor quotes to firm up that reno budget. 

I would start with a title company in VA that is recommended by your REIA.I found this law firm expert in CFDs in VA.http://www.assumeanyloan.com/

If they counter, hold firm.

Its my understanding HOA's are required to have an outside review every three years conducted by an outside firm with an internal review for the two year balance by the HOA. 

we interviewed 3 different CPA firms and individuals in order to decide who we wanted to go with.
