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

Hi Ivan,Agreed,  very intelligent person.

The last one I say from personal experience.

i think you can be successful if you are willing to do what you alluded to, which is spend time in person in your chosen market. 

I am passionate about helping investors build life-changing wealth through scalable portfolios.Background:Currently pursuing a Doctorate in Business Administration, I is fluent in Spanish and have spent a decade in nonprofit work and overseas missions.

Quote from @Daniel Windingstad: Quote from @Obed Calixte: Some people have the personality, processes and systems & time to self manage, some do not.

I personally like Alabama and Tennessee a lot, depending on what specific area you're looking at.Look for Class B or C properties in stable rental markets, particularly single-family homes or duplexes.

It actually says “Loans to Partner (or persons related to Partners)”.

I have a feeling this is designed to maximize retention of now dislocated persons. 

Networking is the key to growth...I am always down for coffee if you want to connect in person.
