Hey @Jaycee Greene, we typically get loans from smaller local banks.

I didn’t have a pre-approval amount per se, I just knew that I didn’t have to worry about funding for anything under maybe half a million and my typical purchase and rehab was in the 150 to 250 range.

Do you typically take your insurance estimate, then multiply it by 3, and use that as an expense?

Normally, you need to earn no more than 80% of the area median income to qualify for those programs.Speak with your banker or broker and good luck!  

The latter part of my post was referring to the protection of the account, not the assets through funding but the cash left on-hand.I think because banks are or were typically used for ck, savings, etc, I never looked to them as offering IRA/SDIRA.When I opened my account (2018) it was with specifics in mind and now I am reevaluating.

I get a lot of applications from out-of-area people, typically moving from another state.

Larger brokerages sometimes are in need of administrative work, which could earn you a steady income while also getting exposure to the field. 

Typically, the investors I work with purchase properties in their personal names and then quit-claim the title into their LLC after the deed has been recorded.Markets like OKC, Memphis, and Little Rock offer some excellent, affordable growth opportunities, and I’d be happy to chat with you to explore these options further.

The typical DST that an informed investor would seriously consider is only available for 80-120 days.Happy to chat nuances if you’d like to DM me. 

Thank you Nick - unfortunately it is the name of the game in this space that there will be people with bad experiences, typically when the appraised value doesn't come in as what they expect and they lash out at the lender accordingly (anyone in this space obviously understands this occurrence).
