If I were Bill i would insist on a promissory note AND a first position trust deed, the promissory note and deed need to be in the name of Bills SDIRA custodian for benefit of Bill's IRA and the note needs to spell out the terms, rate and period.Bill's custodian will have a direction of investment form, he can call the custodian directly and ask what they will need and the EXACT name and address their underwriter is going to demand, for instance EAGLE TRUST LC FBO BILL'S IRA, I had one kicked back because it was addressed to EAGLE TRUST LLC FBO BILLS IRA. they will also tell Bill what they want as far as the Note and deed, make sure it gets recorded too.

It's a great place to ask questions too if you missed a point.Remember, birds of a feather flock together, looks like this event is with eagles, not crows.No disrespect intended at all fellow BPer's, crows can do just fine but they just don't fly at the altitude of the eagle.
