In order to have checkbook control, the IRA account will need to be at a trust company that will allow the IRA to invest in an LLC (where you will be the manager and your IRA will be member - an as manager you will have checkbook access to the LLC bank account).

It's really all about putting together your team - realtor,  title company, other adivisors, QI.

No experience with that company. 

It also allows the manager to work directly with the insurance company to resolve issues efficiently.In Texas, this is part of the standard Texas Board of Realtors Property Management Agreement and is considered an industry best practice.

@Greg O'Brien - Do you mind sharing your company details? 

The other tenants would call the management company on Saturday to report the air conditioning failure and were told that a service person would fix the problem on Monday. 

This seems strange since PPMG (my property management company) is vetting these renters.

My company is actively scaling in the multifamily space, and partnerships are at the core of what we do.

Yeah, my company does.

A team of lenders, title companies, contractors and RE attorneys, and significant knowledge of the intricacies of real estate transactions, you will be MORE than prepared to dive feet first into your first deals and will do so with CONFIDENCE.
