It can be slow as molasses.

Here are a few suggestions on how you can maximize the wealth of information available: Check out the blogs and podcasts, or take advantage of the search feature (magnifying glass).

I posted this yesterday when someone else was asking about arbitrage:I hate to be a pessimist but if you search on here most do not have good things to say about arbitrage.

Perhaps Meetup.com may be good, I've haven't searched there in years.

Drive slow up/down the wrong street looking like you aren't from there could get the cops called on your or worse.

Google search, pops right up. 

I have found impressive opportunities for flips and while searching for capital investors I am wary to shell out too much information on the project in fear of the potential investor taking my ideas and running with them. 

For short term rentals, I use: AirDNA: I love AirDNA, but don't love the address search.

There are banks that do non-recourse loans to IRA's, a simple google search should render you some results. 2) If you are still working for the government, you likely can't rollover the TSP to an IRA. 3) When borrowing money with the IRA, you do have a special tax, called UBIT, not a deal breaker, but something to be aware of. 

Fast solutions have slow problems.This definitely includes any risk-on investment.
