Two properties down from this house along side the tracks was a metal shop...Overpriced and noisy neighbors...no thanks.

@Michael LeYes generally one can invest in real estate alongside her own IRA as long it is processed as a tenants-in-common transaction, for example.   

HiI am getting started in REI and working on building up my contact list of other investors, attorneys, handymen and other friends.A little about meI have been studying real estate basics for the last 6 years, helped few of my own close friends ( my own home) buy and sell houses just to learn the trade but not for commissionWith my education and bit of experience, just started venturing in this new field but puruing very actively and aggressively.I realized having a good team along side in my journey will truly be helpful and mutually beneficial.Please reach out with your interests in REI and how we will be able to help each other.I live in the nw suburbs in Chicago area and currently working on a townhouse deal.

I'd love to find someone in my area (Lake Worth, Boynton Beach, West Palm Beach) to shadow, assist, work alongside to gain some knowledge of investing. 

Hello all,I currently work in an escalated position alongside New Jersey and the Clean Energy industry. 

One option is to invest in real estate alongside your IRA or solo 401k (if you qualify for a solo 401k).

So the sponsor participates in the 70% along side of the private investors according to how much of the down payment they participate in plus the sponsor gets the remaining 30%.Many of the structures are more complicated than this with a priority of how cash flows are distributed but I kept it simple here.

I have only invested in one crowd funding platform, and in that case the managers are also the sellers, and they make their money alongside the investors from buy and hold rental properties.  

Also how to look for upsides. 15 lot park is not huge and may be harder to find someone you trust to manage it unless you had more properties/doors in the area you could have someone manage alongside this park. 

@Bryce Liggins I would be happy to talk with you and figure out your goals alongside actions steps to help you reach them.
