With an inherited IRA, you need to ensure the cash flow your real estate investment produces will meet your need for taking required distributions.Real estate can actually be a very good investment for an inherited IRA, as the principal is secured by a less volatile real asset that produces consistent income. 

I have produced some good leads and made a few offers, nothing under contract yet. 

I am looking for duplexes in the 100-200k range in a good neighborhood that will produce an abundant pool of responsible, trustworthy, and creditworthy tenants.

I had a deal in front of me and need help determining if this is a good value....It is a low cost low income building.I have a break down of all the numbers but I’ll just throw out the basicsGross rent is $234,000 on an upward trend producing closer to $22,000 a month last 4 months, seller has been clearly cleaning things up a little before sellingThe balance sheet that they gave me shows $98,000 NOI but they do not have property taxes listed and makes me wonder what else that they left out..But either way that should still keep the NOI above $90,000The asking price is $800,000Looking for advise from some experienced investors Thank you

In an attempt to add value to her and the education they will be providing me, my thought is to hire a friend of mine who produces high quality video content for real estate agents and auctioneers(yes, there will be drone footage).

@Josh Wu yes NYC is too expensive you won’t produce a lucrative cash flow.

Originally the purpose of purchasing this house was NOT to use it as a rental or to produce significant cashflow.

It would need to be in the range of $3000 - $3500 to produce positive cash flow as well as cover your equity value. 

A combination of utilizing renovation skills and managing a cash flow producing property long term.Best of luck!

We need to purchase a property in the N Charleston SC area and want real estate agent who specializes in income producing property in the area.
