I will be speaking to the planning director sometime this week and will host a happy hour event in the Springs on Monday  to talk about what I know.

@Julian BuickThis is a tricky question, and one to which you will likely get different opinions based on who you talk to.The IRS is not specific on this issue, and there is not any case law that we know of you can rely on for guidance.The key premise with the IRA is that there can be no direct or indirect benefit between the IRA and a disqualified party - in either direction.Many tax professionals are comfortable with the idea of joint venturing between IRA and personal funds, so long as:The investment is entered into jointly on day one (you cannot sell or exchange interest between the parties).The initial equity percentage is maintained throughout the life of the transaction, so if you initially fund 50/50 or 70/30 or whatever, you stick with that.The caveat is that in order to avoid any kind of "indirect" benefit, neither party should be enabled to participate in the transaction due to the presence of the disqualified funds.
