Thank you in advance for welcoming me to the community and everything so many of you have already shared and contributed! 

I was stunned when our family friend told me that she would contribute $100 K in cash towards my purchase of a $250,000 Duplex at Tinley Park, Il.

The units in China now would sell for approximately 300k and 400k today, and appreciating.I want to buy properties to Buy and Hold to secure a steady income and wholesale properties, either concurrently or after gaining some experience from Buy and Hold properties.Thanks to everyone taking the time to read this post and thanks to everyone who has already contributed to this amazing community.  

@Dustin VerleyYes a PST can be transferred to a self-directed IRA since it falls under the qualified defined contribution plan umbrella.

And the contribution is based on my pay.

I want to start off by thanking everyone who’s contributed to the forums.

I hope that I can learn a lot from everyone here and contribute in my own way.

Since then we've purchased a second rental property and currently looking to invest in multi-family.I hope to learn lots and make a contribution where I can - Cheers,Adrian

Flipper took advantage of the market realities and certainly contributed to price inflation.

I look forward to learning and contributing to this community!
