I already listed the reason for the misunderstanding.

@Michael MoikehaHere is a list of lenders who specifically specialize in non-recourse financing for retirement accounts:https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/2810/50272-list-of-non-recourse-lenders-for-self-directged-ira-and-401kI personally have a loan with NASB, good experience. 

I will probably continue to use Redfin (as the most conservative of three) for initial analysis.

@Chris Heinmiller you can export a list of recent (i.e. 18 months) land trades from Redfin, but you do have to separate the apples from the orange and the bananas, but in an area that is somewhat homogenous, you'll usually be able to see a trend, i.e. you might have two low ones at 20-30k per lot, and one or two high ones at 175k-200k/lot, but then you'll see six or seven trades in the 55-65k range, and then you've figured it out. 

Initial funding with personal funds is fine.

This means that the seller will defend and protect buyer against right claims of third parties to the property (warranty of title) and no liens or encumbrances in the property (warranty against liens and other encumbrances) exists except on the items listed in the deed.

In Gary Keller’s book, Shift, he lists 25 creative options that are most common, but barely scratch the surface:- Seller Contributions- Seller-Funded Permanent Buydown- Seller-Funded Temporary Buydown- Owner Financing- Contract For Deed- Seller Second Lease Option And Lease Purchase- Seller-Assisted Down Payment- Wraparound And Assumable Mortgage- Gift Funding- Selling And Refinancing Existing Assets- Non-Occupied Co-Borrowers- Using 401(K)- Temporary IRA Transfer- Pledged Asset Mortgage- Equity Transfer And Bridge Loan- Employer-Assisted Mortgage- Lender-Funded Buydown- Fannie Mae’s “My Community Mortgage”- Running Scenarios With Automated Underwriting Systems- Adjusting Amortization Period To Lower Payment- Adjusting Interest Rates To Cover Closing Costs- State, Province, And Local Grant Or Bond Programs- Mortgage Credit Certificate- Private LendingHe said these options barely scratch the surface.

Below are the key data points:- Gross Rental Income: $118K (I received the rent roll list from agent)- Effective Gross Income: $112K (I'm assuming a 5% vacancy factor)- NOI: $56K (I'm assuming 50% Operating Expenses - inclusive of 10% property mgmt costs, repairs & maintenance and CapEx reserves)- Recommended PP: $623K (Market CAP rate is at ~8%; I used 9% because I want the Cash on Cash return to be 10%+ with a 30% DP at 7.2% interest rate and 30 yrs term)- The asking price is $1.25M.

Our initial thought is to sell as well as reason we bought it was for that specific reason - also sleep better having less debt

With hard money, you will no longer be limited to turnkey properties listed on the MLS; you can start buying distressed properties and closing on them in 48 hours.
