I like to think of some as cardigan sweater wearers (Mr Rogers); some are people looking for business; some dreaming to start; a huge variety of information.Happy to roll up my sleeves.

The agent’s company is quite big and she is professional, but seems to be very busy, not proactive enough for me.

My CPA is about $25k for the year he is out of Bloomfield Hills MI but he does all my businesses and my 131 units.

The free lancer we hired has been in the business 15 years, and has PROVEN track record of success with real estate agents and mortgage brokers.  

@Chad Hale there is an exception to the first year annual tax for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2021, and before January 1, 2024, LLCs that organize, register, or file with the Secretary of State to do business in California are not subject to the annual tax of $800 for their first tax year....
