@Jade SmithIf you are managing for compensation and for another, you need a CA broker license: CA B&P 10131I don't see anything in there about the length of stay. 

Disqualified persons include your fiduciary and members of your family (spouse, ancestor, lineal descendant, and any spouse of a lineal descendant).The following are examples of prohibited transactions with a traditional IRA:Borrowing money from it.Selling property to it.Receiving unreasonable compensation for managing it.Using it as security for a loan.Buying property for personal use (present or future) with IRA funds.

The State exceptions for unlicensed finders apply to them as a whole, the additional guidance is to licensed individuals as to how they can compensate them legally.

If you are looking to wholesale yourself, there are barriers to doing it with a license as the brokerage must be compensated on all deals involving real estate per your license.

For easier compensation!

Again, other might feel differently here.b) Skin in the game: as a conservative investor, I understand that the dirty secret of industries that the waterfall compensation is in the line with me and incentivizes sponsors to take more risk.

Since 2024 I haven't received any compensation from her.

s point, understand the alignment of interest created by compensation.

Once the co-operative compensation is removed from all MLS in July, I am curious how these folks will stay in business.

The current model doesn't allow for proper compensation for a management company, therefore they give you a lackluster service.
