@Jared Garfield Wasn't Carlton Sheets merely a paid spokesman for Mark Haroldson?

The park owner is dealing with some legal issues related to some of the units that he tried to argue to the court, that he wasn't really selling some units, but had merely recorded them on the wrong documents.

I've considering along the lines of option 1 but it's just been too unstable, odd, disengaged from the economy, etc. for me. RE

As a policy holder you have the right to have a third party evaluate your claim and represent you.

Flipping, wholesaling, acting as an agent, and managing properties for others are all active real estate businesses, but not merely holding rental property.I actually got my agent's license, so that worked out well for me to open the 401K, even though I'm mainly buying/selling for my own account.There are many other small part-time businesses that would qualify (lawn care, Ebay store, etc.)And yes, if you have a business, you can roll over the SDIRA/LLC into the SD401K.

However, I feel this, along with other 'to-do list favorites', is a mere distraction from taking action.

I think its great to get voted for in a thread but one person could easily become 'influential' by merely participating without really adding any value to anyone but merely spending a few minutes voting for other threads read or not.

Randy Hughes has a good course especially good for the buy and hold investor, but I've taken it beyond in my rehab to resell business and wholesaling.These are the my favorite reasons:No need for double closings, merely sell the beneficial interestNo need to foreign file your entity in different states as the trust is a pass-through entity.Anonymity.Save money on transfer fees.No cost to setup a Land TrustThe list goes on and on and on.

As much as it is a numbers game, it should not mistaken for mere gambling.
