The end goal for us is to be in TX (in 8-11 years) and would prefer to have investments there as I don't want to be returning to Colorado all of the time once we move.

For example, you are not allowed to co-mingle personal funds with plan funds or work on the property yourself.I think that cashing out an IRA to buy rentals is not a terrible idea if you can get decent returns in your market.

There are a lot of high character folks who get sucked into garbage Co-GP style guru programs.

Quote from @Meliisa Lee: I’m navigating a divorce and need advice on handling rental properties we co-own.

Hey all, interesting opportunity came up for me as a co-host.

@Denise Brown-Puryear I am biased as I co-own BIFI Loan Servicing.

STAY AWAY from this co. 

I also know from experience that if you have damages from frozen pipes the insurance co. will try to 1) verify that the property was occupied and 2) verify that the heat was turned on ( for example they could request a copy of the heating bill).

Quote from @Dominic Mazzarella: Quote from @Cody Maxwell: I currently am building spec homes in a rural area in Colorado and have been self funding the spec builds.

Not saying it can't be done at two separate title co's but it's a pain.....and I wouldn't recommend it just starting out.
