If you understand real estate as an asset class and can get better results for the IRA by having the IRA invest in real estate, then such an plan is superior to having 100% of your retirement savings in market-based assets.An IRA (self-directed or otherwise) is reasonably well protected from lawsuits that stem from you.

@James Woodrich   the whole premise behind why subject-to's are so awesome is that they stem from a sellers extreme motivation in not wanting a property anymore.

"Dabs are concentrated doses of cannabis that are made by extracting THC and other cannabinoids using a solvent like butane or carbon dioxide, resulting in sticky oils also commonly referred to as wax, shatter, budder, and butane hash oil (BHO).
