Nathan Platter Canadian using RRSP (401K/IRA) money to JV an American houseflip?
15 August 2018 | 11 replies
Alfonso will need to discuss the topic with his plan administrator to see if what you propose is A) allowable and B) something they will facilitate.That is about all I can add to the topic, but wanted to point you towards the starting point.I do not foresee any US side complications, though it is possible any income to your partner may be viewed as taxable by the US.If you find the RRSP is in a position to make the transaction, you will want to connect with an attorney in Canada who can evaluate any tax/legal issues for Alfonso.

Those who are self-employed (wholesaling generally qualifies) can get the additional benefits of the Solo 401k including: Compared to an IRA, Solo 401k contributions limits are roughly ten times higher.There is no custodial requirement for the 401k.You don't need the additional expense and administration of an LLC to have checkbook control.There is a built in-Roth component whereas IRAs are either traditional or Roth, not both.A spouse can also participate in the same Solo 401k plan.The Solo 401k has additional tax benefits over an IRA when investing into real estate using leverage.The penalties for prohibited transactions are less severe, though it's best not to utilize this benefit :)

Thanks for the quick feedback,Refinancing would save about 60k over the life of the new loan compared to the old load with the PMI, I also spoke with my current lender and there isn't much they can help with as far as the current loan other then refinancing, there rate seems high compared to a few others i talked too, so i will definitely shop around a bit. my next question i guess would pertain to these seemingly scam like letters i get and ads that pop up that go something like " under president obama you can refinance out of your current loan and cost you nothing if you owe less than 679,000" obviously nothing is free but are there programs like this?
