So you may enjoy that podcast, and it may be some encouragement as well as you get off the ground.

Sometimes we all need encouragement.

As a part-time investor I'm reluctant to talk about my REI ambitions, but THANK YOU @Brandon Turner & @Joshua Dorkin for continuing to encourage me (via your podcast and posts) to discuss my REI ambitions with everyone I come in contact with.

I really do appreciate feedback and encouragement's.

I've been encouraged to look into putting my future properties in a Series LLC since I am located in VA.

It is encouraging to receive so much feedback.

I also encourage condo owners to sit on the board and make sure to vote when issues come up in the building.  

I know a few commercial investors who are encouraging this move but I want to learn a bit more about this biz first.Thanks!!

That will continue to be the case with your transaction providing income to the IRA.I would strongly encourage you to have a qualified CPA or tax attorney review the situation and ensure the IRA is acting in compliance with IRS guidelines.  

You're definitely getting started in the right place, just remember to take breaks for eating and sleeping, this place can be a serious rabbit hole ;)Not sure what types of investing you're looking at, but I'd encourage you to do some research on turnkey.
