It's very simple:1.Find a real estate attorney that does title work. 2.Talk directly to the seller and agree on a price. 3.

Quote from @Daniel Saravia: anybody here had bought real estate using self directed IRA?

Feel free to contact me directly. 

(Michael's posts are a great resource for this, but still no substitute for working directly with a tax accountant that's well-versed in all the ins-and-outs of this.) 

I think the cycle is now back to door knocking, direct mail, and bandit signs.

I asked my CPA if I should check with my mortgage company before transferring the deed, but they advised that I just do the transfer through an attorney and not explicitly inform the bank.A few attorneys I consulted also had mixed responses, saying it may or may not be an issue, and that many investors do it without problems.Instead of transferring the properties directly to the LLC, would it make more sense to:1. 

The owners reached out to me from a direct mail campaign.

VRBO bookings have been down Airbnb bookings have been up, but it has its own problems like siding with a guest who trashed my house with unauthorized party , truly if I had the time I would try to get off these platforms and go direct to customer, easier said than done. 

As a starting point: -If they work full time and make $700k a year -Don't want to or can't spend time self managing a short-term rental -Don't have a spouse who wants to take the lead on managing the rentals They are likely not going to directly reduce their taxable income with real estate year-to-year. 

This ballooned the amount of guests booking longer stays on their platform, and pushed them into being an industry leader in the medium term rental space.My company has had a few struggles with payments, both with direct bookings and also for guests staying through AirBNB.
