Following is how the ROBS 401k works: Because you directly rollover your IRA or former employer 401k, 403b, Keogh, SEP, SIMPLE, or other eligible account, to your new ROBS 401k  plan, which then funds your business, you incur no taxes or early distribution penalties.Unlike traditional 401k plans that allow for a 401k participant loan, that is, borrow up to 50% of the account balance not to exceed $50,000, the ROBS 401k for business financing plan allows you to use all of your retirement funds to fund your start-up business.The ROBS 401k funded corporation allows you to draw a reasonable salary from the business.ERISA 408(e), and ERISA Reg. 2550.408 list information regarding the use of 401k funds to invest in employer stock of the employer’s corporation.The IRS formally commented on the use of 401k business funds on Oct 1, 2008 by issuing IRS memo commenting that the use of retirement funds is not disallowed but continue to be reviewed by the IRS.The use of retirement funds for business funding entails the 401k purchasing stock shares in a C-Corporation.

I was uncomfortable but I thought that maybe this was the way commercial deals worked.The GP predicted selling the property for $3.1 and then signed a deal in January for 2.78, which seemed low given the hot nature of the market and the improvements done to the property but I didn't really have any recourse.
