I would suggest speaking to an estate lawyer, certainly.

I would love a 5% tax on every trade but not at the cost of my US citizenship.

Forget them handling this snow probably won’t happen but make sure they know you are pissed and if it happens again you are going to have your lawyer handle it.

@Michael Elfant I met a young lawyer up in North Jersey at a real estate investors training.

There are certain things, as a lawyer, I would say absolutely don't do on your own.

You go to lawyer, he draws up the contract and then the private lender wires you the money?

The Flippers are having problems finding Deals as the Market is at a High and my lawyer says that some of the Flippers he talks with, are not able to Sell.

As we pompous lawyers like to say, equity favors the vigilant, not those who sleep on their rights.Personally I would consult with a New York lawyer.  

@Mindy Jensen Here is a straw man answer to the the generic LLC question.  1) If you don't have either a lot of assets in banks, brokerages, or real estate OR a big W-2 income that could be garnished, stop here and don't bother with entities.  2) If you are in California, the minimum franchise tax of $800 per LLC per year makes LLCs an expensive approach to asset protection.  3) If you are buying single family homes and want to get mortgages it is way less expensive to buy and borrow in your own name.  4) If you are still reading this because you are wealthy, live outside of California, and use commercial lenders, then you definitely have a lawyer you can talk to, so why are you asking this on the forum?

I don't normally sign stuff without a lawyer or creditor making me.  :-)
