Sorry all, I don't recognize wholesalers as legitimate.  

Neither of those are meant to push you into super high risk investments but there is a relatioship that must be recognized.

It might be true, but it's not relevant, and has nothing to do with the comment at hand.I understand that it hurts to have to recognize that some people you look up to and respect (George Bush, Sarah Palin) have their flaws, but attacking Obama to deflect the reality really doesn't make much sense in context.

It was a pleasure working with you, and I'm positive this won't be the last time we do business together.I only found BP a few months ago, and when I first looked around, I immediately recognized it was going to a valuable resource for learning.

Sure he is a very successful businessman and investor but, no one cares because they do not recognize his name.

I have successfully cut down on seasoning from 90 to 45 days in one case, completely eliminated the seasoning period in another, and in one case they didn't recognize the date I recorded the option and started the seasoning period with the date I formally took title.So if you are going to go the option route...always file and when you get your end buyer...make sure their lender knows up front what is happening...like I say, if argued correctly you can get the underwriter to use the option recording date to start the seasoning period.

Forget the why's of renting: its a reality.Forget the why's of income inequality - its not up to you.You have recognized reality and chosen your place in it.I'm not a real estate investor because dealing with tenants sounds like more trouble than its worth - its a choice, I know I'm giving up money and returns.  

For instance, if the seller financing is over a period of 10 years and there was a $100k profit on sale, the every year for ten years the seller will recognize $10k in cap gains. 

Not all crowdfunding companies will accept IRA monies - you'll have to call and do your research.As far as mixing asset types within one Self-Directed IRA, this is perfectly acceptable.

If we recognize that there is a good bit of gamble to this game we might all make wiser decisions with our finances.
