If it's a larger bank it might take as long as 60 days.

Second, you learned what I learned when I started off - cash flow is great, but it's not that passive and $100 a door per month is $1,200 a year when I could easily just grab a commission from the license I got and reinvest it (yes, there are differences in taxes and passive/active but you get the jist).

I think we would be interested and willing to have someone we paid a nominal fee each year just to be able to answer a call or a couple of emails.Maybe do an initial consultation and/ or an annual checkup and onboarding to get us set up properly in terms of entities etc. ie does it make sense to create an llc.maybe have an packet available to answer basic questions like dos and donts of fair housing, evictions, Collections, recent law changes,the setup and use of an llc, trusts, wills etcThat way we are initially doing things properly and have built a relationship before we have larger engagements or are paying thousands due to initial poor planning.
