It still does not make 'sense' to me though (as so many government rules dont) as it seems like by allowing that there would nothing for the IRS to 'lose' by allowing it, and there would be the possible benefit of having the Required Distributions in the 401K ROTH, and therefor more money floating around in the economy to be taxed.Either way, thanks for your input!

If you develop relationships and have some experience under your belt, quite a bit of money floating around from private lenders from 8-12%, no points, Iin my experience.

Try floating those out in front a non-rational thinking person with trust issues to begin with.  

There are always deals floating around, don't rush in just because this one is next door.

It's whatever floats both your boats.

In the last few years they have floated two school bonds worth $3 BILLION dollars.

What kind of flooring did you use and did you float it on the tile to save on demo costs?

Gurjot Grewal I personally like to lock in my rate with one lender and float my rate with another lender.

So if your total loan amount is 150k let's say then you'll pay 1,500/month in holding costs, 3 payments min so that's 4,500 in holding costs maybe 6k if you go 4 months.So just to buy a distressed property for 100k and put 75k in it and hope to get 225k when you're done, you will need to float 35k. 

The float money needed, including the cost of debt while you rehab, is damn near 35k - 40k.
