My CPA wants to charge $150 for signing the letter while earlyIQ is less than half of that per their website.

Otherwise he said he would be willing to wait the 14 months, in order to not be charged the pre-payment penalty.Does anyone have any tips or advice on a potential subject to structure for this deal.

Seriously though, search here on BiggerPockets for all the threads with investors complaint they're paying to much for too little service, BEFORE you move forward with this purchase.It's not easy to increase charges to owners.

They usually don’t charge any extra as long as they are doing the closing of the sale Good luck. 

I would like to utilize the HELOC to lend to the partnership, from my own LLC (which would be paid interest above what the HELOC charges) but am wondering what hurdles I need to jump through to do it properly.

The county charged me $3600 for some b.s. school fee.

To piggy back on Russel's post, the Maryland STATE real property tax rate is 0.112, but each jurisdiction (county and, in some cases municipality) will charge piggyback rates.

Also, as far as I can tell, even if the person who damages the garage door is someone related to me, the association should still be responsible to replace it, but, they do reserve the right to charge me for the cost.

If the LLC and the property are in separate states, one issue is if you had to go to court, the court wouldn't recognize your LLC's filing since it doesn't exist in that state.Also, remember that CA charges some huge franchise fee, some $700 or $800 annually, which is applied per LLC you form. 

Just keep in mind the cost of permits and building materials and utility upgrade charges etc.
