I suggest you start out by meeting like minded people and here is a link to a local meetup in the OC: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/1225233-ocre...Good Investing...

Hey Matt, As a solo-shop, I use the following to stay on top of my client's minds and files: 1.

A self-directed IRA could be a good way to defer taxes, but there are some rules to keep in mind—like keeping all the income in the IRA until retirement.

Does anyone have any contacts they wouldnt mind sharing that can add me to their buyers list?

I had 2 or 3 called.Now again keep in mind I had zero interest in holding these as rentals and I ONLY bought homes that had significant equity for me.. mainly all pre foreclosures..

Keep in mind though along with rehab the turnkey operator is paying all the holding costs generally most if not all turnkey companies use HML loans for their inventory ( thats my Job) and paying taxs insurance utls etc.. so you need to add 10 to 15 on top of the all in for holding costs..

Mind shooting me a PM?  

Keep that in mind and just proceed with the utmost caution. 

Do you mind sharing the name of that type of loan/lender that allows you to have the seller carry on a second position?

With that in mind, I’m considering purchasing four rental units over the next four years to build a stream of income that could help supplement my retirement by age 68.The challenge I’m facing is that the deals I’ve come across so far don’t make financial sense.
