@Leon Wang, Unless there's something unique with what you're trying to do any title company can handle those quiet title transfers.  

Plan is to use master lease option, and then hold for long term cash flow.1) Being a unique property and hard to find comps, given the appraisal, sale and listing data, how do you determine what your max purchase price to be?

After recently refinancing a duplex, the remaining equity will allow me to open an interest-only HELOC with a maximum withdrawal amount of $21,300. The HELOC is fixed for the first 5 years and then it will adjust with...

I am curious to learn a bit more about these unique things. 

@Ram Su the issue with AM Fam and SF is they each have their own unique policies that are not standard to the rest of the marektplace. 

Even if we have to keep the existing floor plan I think we could still charge $1400-1600 in rent for the area based on comps, which would still make this a profitable deal.Here is the unique aspect to this deal that I could use some help with.

What is unique about this situation, at least for me, is that the duplex is owner occupied which qualifies the current owner for the exemption.

For those of us here on BP that have been doing this forever, never ever compromise the comfort level of your numbersI have broadened my area and changed strategies many a time but I never stretch the numbers beyond my comfort zone.

May be a stretch of a question, but, if an SDIRA is used, are you barred from personally collecting cash flow that the rentals kick off (meaning, does 100% of ALL revenue/profit have to go back into the IRA)?

@Pat McCandless We have a solid infrastructure in place to deal with the tenants and the unique kinds of maintenance issues that come up with a multi family house as opposed to a single family so we do not find them any more difficult than a single family.
