Seth Hochberg Best Way to Pull My Money From Retirement Accounts
26 October 2020 | 19 replies
The repayment terms for a 401k participant loan are equal monthly/quarterly payments of principal and interest (typically prime plus 1%) over a 5 year term (longer if used to acquire your principal residence).Please note that if you take a full $50,000 and then pay back the loan, you can't take another $50,000 until 12 months after the first loan was fully paid back.Per the loan offset rules that went into effect with the 2018 Tax and Job Act: if you leave your job and the loan is current at the time you leave your job but then the loan goes into default because you left your job, you will have until your tax return deadline (including any timely filed extension) to make the loan current by depositing the outstanding balance into an IRA (and thereby avoid the taxes and penalties that would otherwise apply).Please keep in mind the multiple loan rules:Under those rules, the sum of the balances of a participant's outstanding 401k loans under a single 401k plan (using the highest outstanding balance of each loan over the last 12 months) can't exceed 50% or $50,000 whichever is less.

Looks like your question hasn't been answered.I am locking up about 8 deals a month by cold calling & direct mail - I hired 4 cold callers to generate me hot deals and I take the direct mail calls to my cell phone personally since that marketing channel costs more money.

Bill Robinson Rental house in disrepair with tenants

  $125,000 - $40,000 = $85,000 less realtor fees to sell it, and will a lender finance it in it's present condition.Also, those pier and beams go out of wack all the time and maybe just adjusting them will fix it.Some of the older homes are jacked up with all kinds of automobile junk yard scissor jacks and Auto Zone bottle jacks, piles of rocks, stacks of 2 x 4's on grade, wooden shingles, tar shingles, etc... vs proper peirs.So maybe one of the renters (or one of their friends) crawled under there and removed the jacks to use on their car repair or sell at the pawn shop for beer money and now the floor bounces.Meaning get a 2nd opinion from a pier company (that's legit, has an office and a website, etc...) and have them confirm the ROT--if any.Because the floors do rot (sometimes) and also the piers go out of wack and sometimes also sometimes disappear into thin air--and no one knows what happened to them.Getting a 2nd opinion on if there is rot--with cell phone pics of it--would be smart--if none then adjust/replace the jacks.Good Luck!
