Please let me know what days and times work for you.

You can create a trust to pay you out $5000 a month for a 39 month period of time.

If so, and you can find time to start a side hustle that can generate some income (even if $100), you can rollover your pre-tax IRAs/401k into a self directed 401k.

Lenders or investors who have short lock up periods but have years of experience feeding their business with new capital would give me more comfort but anyone who is just starting and is promising a rate of return or return of capital in a set period of time would be alarming because they very well could be reliant on fresh capital to make good on that promise and that usually ends poorly.

You could form an LLC and have the operating agreement that allows your boss to require you to purchase his membership interest (or allow you to purchase his) in a given time frame.

For more affordable properties—those priced under $400,000—the timeline is even shorter, with many homes receiving offers within two weeks of being listed.This fast-moving market poses a particular challenge for first-time buyers who may not be as familiar with the urgency required in competitive bidding situations.

The other thing I have learned over time is that the clearer your vision is, the easier it is to get there, so CLEARLY defining the location, type of property, purchase price, renovation amount, etc. etc., will really make a big difference.

I don't want to waste anyone's time providing quote after quote for me for the properties I am merely in the analysis stage with.

As a newbie, you always question whether you're making the right decision, but you just have to push forward after a certain amount of time to prevent analysis paralysis.
