Wish we had it on video.. ;)I believe the scene was something like this..

I've spoken to a couple of agents, and I have not found anything that will provide sufficient return.And this week I had a thought (more than one, but one relevant to this discussion!)

Only 2k per year into it though.I'm less familiar with Coverdells but I'm pretty sure that room and board are qualified expenses (as someone else pointed out: to the extent that they do not exceed the on-campus room/board numbers of the relevant college), so yes, if she were to rent your place at market rent then that would likely qualify.Now, from your response, it's also possible that you are thinking of using the 529 or Coverdell for investment purposes in the same way you could use a self-directed IRA, for example.  

Been reading books and watching videos but I'm more of a hands on type of guy.

You will have to look at your contract for seller's time limits for delivering that information and buyer's time limits for lifting the relevant contingencies.  

@Louis Mannikko  if your 401k is a solo 401k that you control.. you may want to look at investing NOtes or with a HML.. this is a very good use for those funds.on the fix and flip you may want to consider partnering up.. just make sure whoever you partner with is vetted thourougly.. plenty of " my idea and your Money guys out there" you can go on amazon or E bay.Look for any of the guru's written material and videos you can get those for next to nothing. look through them there are usually nuggets in each one that you can use.you can also spend untold hours on BP asking questions and reading and listening to pod casts etc.. of course this is free and just depends on if you have the time for that.

I know from your video on your profile (which is great btw!)
