Now I still can not believe that someone put a new metal roof on a house with a wall falling in, mold, and the floor falling in!

All you did is paid a premium for metal cladding and a big *** crane. 

You can invest in real estate, private equity, trust deed, tax liens, precious metals, crypto currency, and much much more.Few considerations: With custodial self-directed IRA you would have to go through IRA custodian for each transaction (you will have to deal with delays, bureaucracy, red tape and asset/transaction fees). 

It has a horrible "burning pile" used on the "farm", with old furniture, metal, carpeting, wood, etc. that is burned there regularly right in front of the house (20 ft from it) in a huge pile, that is often simmering.

metal for roofs hasn’t seemed to have gone up much if any.  

Our town does not allow Metal sided buildings of any kind. 

The property/metal building is worth around $350k and I got the heloc for only $200k (that's what I requested). 

They are made down to a price for a reason.Flooring can have significant sags in them, roofing on a singlewide MH can be difficult to repair on older models as they are often made out of metal and curved rather than shingled.

They are metal grating boxes with doors secured by a carabiner or similar.
