Looking for a reputable, trustworthy SDIRA you or a close colleague would recommend.

Is there any tax consequence differences?

A lot of people on BP talk about it. I am interested in investing with this approach. If you know someone please recommend. Thank you.

It just means they paid to use the name/reputation.4.

Getting in front of the potential lead is key, but I would be careful about doing it in a way that could lead to some bad word of mouth that could harm your reputation early on.

The intelligent keep tax consequences in mind (always) and take advantage of unseen pluses as they present themselves.  

What I can tell you so far is that Lease317 has a good reputation for property management, although I hear they are picky with the types of properties they will manage.  

I feel like my buyer got an exceptional deal on this home, mainly because I wanted the security of having it sold and at the earliest possible settlement date.I could easily see how a seller who doesn't care about their reputation would be more likely to cut corners and skip on some small details in this scenario.

If this is not an option, I would consider networking to find a reputable GC in your area and then paying them for their time to walk through the house with you when you visit prior to making the offer.
