I started my jouney here in 2011 and I am still learning everyday - especially from others on this forum.My personal portfolio is located within Stamford and Bridgeport.

Purchase price: $330,000 Cash invested: $40,000 Hey everyone, I wanted to share a personal story about a property I purchased and renovated in Hudson County, NJ.

Quote from @Jeff Sanders: Personally coming from an agent/investor in CA, I always get a quote from a broker of mine and make sure I am knowledgeable with the fees/costs.

He’s not a pushy salesman, and I’ve got a business partner who has worked with him for the last 10 years without any issues.As for your situation, I wouldn’t say it sounds like a Ponzi scheme, but I’d strongly recommend meeting with the fund sponsor in person and asking as many questions as you can.

They actually have a licensed person in California.

Personally I would pass but if you go forward I would do a lot of research on the group you are renting to and get a very large security deposit to cover damage. 

@Jerry Chilimidos I am not a CPA owever my understanding is any loans to your IRA can not be personally guaranteed.

Attend in person, bid, if you win you have to pay right then via a cashiers check.

Could it be considered piercing the corporate veil if the mortgage for the property is in your personal name but the deed is in the name of the LLC?
