You can still find deals that are priced from $120-180k that do positive cash flow and hit the 1% rule.

But the person seemed bent on me wire transferring within 3 days, or the deal will no longer be valid.

Under IRS Publication 523 for 2023 dated February 2024, I qualify as "Service, Intelligence and Peace Corp Personnel" and for "qualified extended duty" (page 4& 5 - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p523.pdf).

Purchase price: $110,000 Cash invested: $30,000 Hobby Farm On 10 acres2300 sq ft house with 8 out buildings - Large Barn, Animal/hog barn, Mid-size machine shed (2) 25' x 35' / 30' x 50', Large Machine shed 60' x 60', Grainery barn, Entertainment Barn, 3 car garage What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

It's not that big of a deal, but it's just another thing to do that Airbnb takes care of for me for a lesser fee.Just my 2 cents.

Like everything in real estate, it comes down to negotiating a good deal upfront.

Based on your description, it sounds like you would violate the self-dealing rule and could put your SDIRA at risk. 

How important is it to have good credit when making these deals? 

As an investor myself, I can also help you find more deals and grow your rental business. 

I have found some deal and crunched the numbers that seem alright.Pros/ cons.
