The returns will likely be greater if you source the borrower and originate on behalf of the IRA.

It merely means you will likely have a difficult time refinancing the property to a traditional lending source.

@Saul Vargas, to piggyback off others, sourcing a traditional SFH rental that meets your underwriting criteria will be complex due to interest rates and market conditions.

-  we use various sources (Web, Facebook, click funnels, etc. to fill up the PONDS for our investors and wholesales to fish from.).  

@Kenny BaoTypically, larger properties are sourced through brokers.

Coos Bay - The main delay with application in this area is whether the property is on public utilities or has a septic system and private or public water source.

@Dwight HenningRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Underlying Truth: Jake’s actions are rooted in insecurity.

I think the real estate professional strategy works if it is your primary source of income.   

A reasonably good source is AVVO.com by zip code and expertise.
