File
No. 333-214274
Dear
Ms. Long:
On
behalf of Reliant Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), we would like to thank you for your
prompt review of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-214274) (the “Registration Statement”)
originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 27, 2016, in connection
with the registration for resale of 3,585,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) by
the selling stockholders named in the Registration Statement (collectively, the “Selling Stockholders”). We
are responding to comments on the Registration Statement provided by the staff (the “Staff”) of the Commission
by letter dated November 22, 2016.
In
connection with these responses the Company is filing an Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (“Amendment
No. 1”) via EDGAR.
The
Company’s responses to the Staff’s comments are indicated below, directly following a restatement of each comment
in bold type.
General
1. Please
advise us of all registration statements of companies for which your sole Director and
President may have acted as a promoter or in which he had a controlling interest. Describe
in detail the nature and extent of the direct or indirect relationship between your sole
Director and President and those companies and their affiliates. Indicate which companies
are now viable or dormant and which businesses have been modified and restated from that
described in their offering documents, noting the companies that are still actively reporting
with the Commission.
Ms.
Pamela Long

RESPONSE:
Mr.
Chavez was the President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, director and 54.2% owner of Allmarine Consultants
Corp. (File No. 333-130492)(“Allmarine”) from May 19, 2005 until August 29, 2007, the date that Allmarine completed
the acquisition of BAXL Technologies, Inc. (“BAXL”) in a merger (the “Merger”) pursuant
to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of May 25, 2007 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Allmarine,
BAXL, and Allmarine Acquisition Corporation (“AAC”), Allmarine’s wholly-owned subsidiary.
Allmarine
planned to specialize in the administration of ship and corporate registries and provide maritime services to ship owners and
operators including registration and deletion of merchant vessels, bareboat/dual registry, registration of mortgages, classification
and technical surveys such as load line and Safety of Life at Sea (“SOLAS”). Allmarine also planned to conduct
pre-purchase, condition and cargo gear surveys, International Safety Management (“ISM”) consulting and certificates,
International Ship and Port Facility Security (“ISPS”) implementation and certificates and to offer Continuous
Discharge Certificates (“CDC”) for seafarers, vessel history and investigation, marine insurance, corporate
formation, and general consultancy to ship owners and managers. Allmarine had not however generated any revenues and had only
minimal assets as of the date of the Merger.
Pursuant
to BAXL’s filings with the Commission, BAXL manufactured and marketed products incorporating proprietary technology that
enabled the delivery of wired and wireless broadband applications including Internet access, Video on Demand, VoIP and Video Surveillance
over existing telephone wiring.
Pursuant
solely to a recent review of BAXL’s filings, it appears that BAXL ceased operations on July 14, 2008 and filed for Chapter
11 Bankruptcy protection and that BAXL has not filed any reports with the Commission since December 2008.
Mr.
Chavez had no control over BAXL or its filings subsequent to the Merger.
Other
than as described above, there are no other registration statements for companies which Mr. Chavez has acted as a promoter or
in which he had a controlling interest.
Amendment
No. 1 has been updated by the Company to include information regarding Mr. Chavez’s involvement with Allmarine even though
such transactions occurred over five years ago.

2. We
note that your counsel, David M. Loev, has been involved in the initial filings of several
development stage and shell companies. Please provide us with an analysis regarding why
Mr. Loev should not be considered a promoter as that term is defined under Rule 405 of
Regulation C under the Securities Act.
RESPONSE:
Mr.
Loev has served as securities counsel to numerous companies over the past fifteen years, including several development stage companies
and companies which are considered ‘shell companies’ within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well
as a significant number of companies which are not in the development stage.
Mr.
Loev is not a promoter of the Company however, as pursuant to Rule 405 of the Securities Act, a promoter is defined under Rule
405 of the Securities Act as:
“(i)
Any person who, acting alone or in conjunction with one or more other persons, directly or indirectly takes initiative in
founding and organizing the business or enterprise of an issuer; or
(ii)
Any person who, in connection with the founding and organizing of the business or enterprise of an issuer, directly or indirectly
receives in consideration of services or property, or both services and property, 10 percent or more of any class of securities
of the issuer or 10 percent or more of the proceeds from the sale of any class of such securities.”
Neither
Mr. Loev, nor The Loev Law Firm, PC was involved with the founding or organizing of the business or enterprise of the Company
(The Loev Law Firm, PC was only engaged on May 25, 2016, solely to provide legal representation to the Company in connection with
the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and did not previously consult with or discuss the Company with Mr. Chavez
or any other persons prior to that date) and has not directly or indirectly received in consideration of services or property,
or both services and property, 10 percent or more of any class of securities of the Company or 10 percent or more of the proceeds
from the sale of any class of such securities. Furthermore, neither Mr. Loev, nor The Loev Law Firm, PC, has received, or will
receive, any securities in the Company or any direct proceeds from the sale of Company stock as compensation for services rendered.
Mr.
Loev and The Loev Law Firm, PC, only serve as securities counsel to the Company and has no relationship with the Company outside
of such representation.
Accordingly,
neither Mr. Loev nor The Loev Law Firm, PC, meets the definition of “promoter” under Rule 405 of the Securities
Act.

revise the disclosure in your summary compensation table under Footnote (2) to provide
more detail regarding the tax reimbursement.
RESPONSE:
The
Company has updated Amendment No. 1 to disclose that the tax reimbursement payments were made to reimburse the CEO and Controller
for personal income taxes that arose from when Reliant Pool’s entity type was that of a general partnership and each partner
(including the CEO and Controller) were taxed on their share of Reliant Pool’s profits. In May 2014, Reliant Pools converted
from a general partnership to a Nevada corporation. The tax reimbursement relates to the CEO’s and Controller’s share
of federal income tax on their pro rata share of Reliant Pool’s net income for federal income taxes prior to the date of
conversion from a general partnership to a corporation.
