starting a self directed IRA?

[Kenny Bergeron]

I have so many questions on me starting out in becoming an investor!! being in november and tax season around the corner, my question to you investors is< Im getting like 4 thousand dollars in taxes and i am not sure if i should use that towards a down payment on a multi family for my 1st property or put that in a self directed IRA that i havent opened up yet but want to?? whats the best way to utilize that money for my first purchase?? I dont have any money to put down as a down payment which is holding me back in getting started. want to be a buy and hold investor. thank you!!!
