With private patio and great Williamson County SchoolsWhat made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I was told if I could show a professional license such as a broker license I might get approved but the best option would be a Private Investigators license, otherwise, they didn't see any other path to approval for me or my company.

You can purchase the first one with a private loan from your dad or cash to minimize risk, and leverage a second or third property with a bank loan and the rest of your cash.

Quote from @Audris Tien: Hi @Deb, just wondering what self-directed IRA firm you are using to do this for private lending?

Live in new home while it appreciates for 10 years until I get a faculty housing spot, sell private market house, put proceeds (minus downpayment) in bank for retirement (I estimate this will be 1.3 mil before capital gains and real estate fees based on 7% growth in a very desirable Southern California location), and take out new loan for lower cost faculty housing.

I'm curious if you have considered approaching local non profits that might want a private partner.
