Other ways of using SDIRAs could be to invest in syndications, performing  or non-performing debt, precious metals, raw land, precious metals, mobile home parks, self-storage facilities and more. 

I think an equally probable scenario is that we'll convert it to a rental, and then look into a 1031 exchange if we think we can trade into a better-performing asset. 

Turning a historic duplex into a high-performing asset while forcing $100k in appreciation is no small feat—seriously impressive. 

I'd stay away from Del Toro for non performing notes, especially.

Everything in the article makes total sense...wealth building helps through appreciation and debt paydown over time.It makes sense that chicago suburbs with strong school districts perform the best. 

Past performance is no indication of future results.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Hi everyone,I’m looking for some guidance on improving the performance of our short-term rental, and I’d really appreciate your insights.

If this fails, then perform a land trust strategy.

Quote from @Emily Gowen: I only recommend investors sell when they can move the money to a better-performing investment or when the sale moves them closer to a specific goal.
