If so, can you hunt/fish/camp on the property until someone purchases back the lien?

My name is Ryan, I am a 27 year old home owner, and have dreams of owning multiple homes to provide income from rental propertiesI am considering new construction of apartment complex, as well as Fixer upper properties.This site interests me and I hope to broaden my view of opportunities to achieve deeper pockets.

I got interested in tax deed investing because a friend from church was doing it with money he made from his fishing business.

At the end of the day there are plenty of fish in the sea and it's more than just finding a team that you trust.

Don't know how to otherwise say this, but BP is not some local bar where someone is going to suggest things about RE financing off the top of their head passing along ideas or old ways of what use to be done without being corrected if they are off base, and most are off base, there are several here with a great deal of financing knowledge and the casual layperson will usually be a fish out of water making suggestions.

Just need to fish around. 

Thats a bit bigger than the fish I chase but gives you an idea.  

The transaction you describe would effectively be you purchasing the property from the IRA.All activities of a self-directed IRA must be exclusively for the benefit of the IRA and there may be no direct or indirect benefit in either direction between yourself (or disqualified parties) and the IRA.A self-directed IRA is simply a way of broadening the investment choices of the IRA.An IRA can purchase property, including with a non-recourse mortgage.All income produced by the property flows to the IRA tax sheltered.

lol i think it's smart to budget for new stuff, and then fish around for a deal if you have the time...when i sell a house, it looks pretty new, so i won't buy used appliances unless they look brand new as well

If you aren't there, the guy and a truck will go fishing and swear they were there, especially if they know you have to be at work 120 miles away!
