I'm an executive creative director in advertising, having done agency life for 25+ years.

One in the SF Bay area that has been around a LONG LONG time is BAWB which stands for Bay Area Wealth Builders - they might be able to direct or assist you.

First of all, don't be surprised if the CPAs (if not experienced in RE investing) tell you you can't self direct, or that you shouldn't because it's too risky.

Two basic questions First, I have been told by director that we have 3-4 insurance companies that will write a policy.

Ok, for anybody still interested, I located the applicable regulations.Performing repairs yourself on property held within your SDIRA fall under United States Code: Title 26, § 4975, subpart (c)(1)(C) which reads:(c) Prohibited transaction(1) General ruleFor purposes of this section, the term “prohibited transaction” means any direct or indirect—(C) furnishing of goods, services, or facilities between a plan and a disqualified person;As stated above, it is a little vague and subject to interpretation.

I did have an interesting conversation with their "director of education" who spends an hour to see if potential students have what it takes to qualify for their limited number of coaching slots...in less than a half hour he decided I wasnt a good fit for their program, and hung up on me :-) My non proprietary "secret" is; think about who the buyer is, figure out what they want and give it to them.

The key will be how are you buying real estate, are you buying it direct or investing in a syndication?

And I am schedule for my third interview with one of the directors at CPA.

Hello all,Business is going well, and most of you know me as an investor focused Realtor in Omaha and in the next couple months I have the amazing opportunity to scale that business exponentially as the Acquisitions Director for an amazing Real Estate Company (more info to publish later) but I am actually seeking recommendations for a good real estate tax professional who serves the Omaha area.Basically I am already formed as S Corp but I am forming an LLC (potentially under my S Corp) with myself and the contractors I work hand in hand with to renovate properties with the intent of serving under one "legal" roof when we assist investors in finding and renovating properties for investors and want to make sure we set ourselves up as strong as possible.Any recommendations?
