This was primarily done so I could have more control over my own career/earnings, but I retained every aspect of the company (including it's 4 employees) and re-branded with a new name and mission as she was a great appraiser but not much of a businesswoman.I didn't have the liquid assets to buy the business outright, and it was a bit wonky in the math anyway since I was a top producer, my gross earnings couldn't really be factored in to the totals as I would have made that anywhere.

Can my SD IRA LLC lend funds to someone that I'm a 50/50 business partner with to buy an income producing 2-Family house?

Better question is why don't you refinance that investment property so you can acquire more income producing properties?  

So if you have any inkling that you could find a better producer the time to sell is the day the insurance company gives you the keys. 

Also you need a job that produces enough money to live off of and have extra to invest plus have the flexibility and time to invest and network. 

@Sanjoy V.A deal that produces healthy returns with long term debt in this market shouldn't give you valuation trouble in the future.

You can try owner financing which can produce some very generous deals.

Getting more income-producing properties faster is going to (in most cases) get you there faster.

I am assuming they are computerized, and not using typewriters and mimeographs to produce the documents, so...  20 minutes? 

Great price, great deal and great deal and it produces a positive cash flow.
