When buying real estate in an IRA you are not allowed to provide personal guarantee therefore the loan must be non-recourse.

Rare anyone redeems 100K house, but I can almost guarantee if you rehab it before the two years is up, someone will show up, redeem and you just remodeled their home for FREE.As far as hard money loans go typically around Houston you'll pay 2% origination fee and probably 12-14% interest for six months. 

The LLC also guaranteed a number of months rents and was going to hand me the substaintial non-refundable deposits from the tenant.Ultimately I decided not to pursue the property.

@Andrew ThomasSorry you I was shift my focus from purchasing my personal residence to purchasing my first investment property as a realtor you should have access to a program called realist you can easily go in there and search for out-of-state or out of County owners one of the best ways to Market is handwritten envelopes it is almost a guaranteed open versus any other kind of marketing realist has so much information how long people have owned the property with their mortgages Etc I would also try to find as many wholesalers as possible and sign up for their list and look at how they are packaging their properties you will need to go and join some investment clubs a national Club you could potentially join is called Lifestyles Unlimited I'm sure the information they teach is also available on Bigger Pockets at the end of the day if you have a great deal you will always be able to find an investor for it

Additionally, placing the property in an LLC doesn't guarantee privacy for tenants, as they can still access public tax records and potentially trace ownership back to you.

Your agent said, "Section 8 is guaranteed rent income!"

The salesman makes it sound so tempting, you get some added life insurance while also earning passive guaranteed tax free income! 

I guarantee that if you follow this action, you will find yourself at new heights you never imagined possible.

I guarantee a crypto currency of some sort will be mass-adopted in the future, but there is really nothing showing that it will be Bitcoin.

Of course there’s no guarantee but I wasn’t quite ready to do it all on my own while working full time.
