I am a Control Room Operator at the Savannah River Site.

So my husband and I have a combined $25,000 ($11,000 in mine, and about $14,000 in his) in old 401k's that I am looking to possibly use as down payments for rental properties in either a self-directed IRA or something where I have more control.

If you cannot control yourself, cut up the credit cards and use cash. 

Hi all,I'm interested in 8 family house in union city and learning rent control laws in nj.

Occupancy, Preservation, Maintenance and Protection of the Property:Borrower shall occupy, establish, and use the Property as Borrower's principal residence within sixty days after the execution of this Security Instrument (or within sixty days of a later sale or transfer of the Property) and shall continue to occupy the Property as Borrower's principal residence for at least one year after the date of occupancy, unless Lender determines that requirement will cause undue hardship for Borrower, or unless extenuating circumstances exist which are beyond Borrower's control.

Good afternoon BP friends,I'm looking at setting up an SDIRA for the specific purpose of buying a single property - an undeveloped lot - and I'm trying to determine if it makes any sense to use an LLC and/or have "checkbook" control for this particular SDIRA.My initial thought is that since this SDIRA would be to buy a single piece of undeveloped land and then hold that property as an investment for the next several years, that the additional complexity and expense of an LLC and checkbook control would be unnecessary.

Use a few of those 20 creative ideas to make offers - use a little of you credit line to control the property and flip it quickly to build your cash reserve - need a partner ???

So, now, we've started real estate investing and we've been told that we need a trust to oversee the LLC's so the pass through is controlled I thing.  

Unless, we have some other financial catastrophe (created by the US as the last one) or based on Geo-political upheavals that we help cause, but ultimately don't control.

With rental property, the delays and fees associated with each expense payment can be a barrier.A self-directed IRA LLC will provide you with checkbook control.
