Erklärung
Haber is almost never a standalone verb in modern Spanish. Its present — he, has, ha, hemos, habéis, han — exists to build the present perfect: he comido, has visto, hemos llegado.
The special impersonal form hay expresses existence: hay un problema, hay muchas opciones. It stays singular even with plural nouns.
Don't confuse haber with tener: possession is always tener (tengo dos hijos), never haber.
