Self Directed IRA experience?

[David L Foreman]

Will any investors share their experience (good and bad) with using a self directed IRA to jump start their investment business? I am 61. My investment objectives are primarily to build cash flow and equity which can be used for retirement at approximately age 67.

I plan to acquire 25 small multi family doors in the next 6 years. I currently have very limited free cash to make immediate investments. Although I am working to develop investment partnerships to fund deals outside of the IRA, I am considering the SDIRA to invest in an asset I can control and get moving more quickly.

Thanks!
