@Gina Cresseinvestment property can be financed inside of an IRA, however since you are considered to be a disqualified person are not allowed to provide personal guarantee for the loan - therefore the loan must be non-recourse.

Not sure why they are doing it.. because we have a 1 year guarantee on all items from CO. 

Without it you are guaranteed to never make it happen. 4)Don’t take it too seriously – it’s a lot to lean and that is why people never really get in to it.Good luck!

I am seeing so many people asking for "hard money"...but why would I just give anyone money without a guarantee of at least getting the return??

No guarantees though, since she also said that some home owners have complained about the number of rentals and want a rental cap written in.

I've heard they can be negotiated down once the city sees you are going to make the property conform to the codes, but it isn't a guarantee, so its wise to factor in the cost of paying those fines into your deal (making a lot of the MLS "deals" a lot less attractive).  

It takes a lot of money and time with no guarantee that you will get anything approved.  

This deal was ripe for the picking with a guarantee of strong cash-flow, immediate equity, and a great ROI.

I know this thread is pretty outdated, but I wanted to see if anyone was either successful in getting a refund through the guarantee they give you at the time of purchase or successful in real estate after this program.

Even if I also get pre-approval from a regular lender I assume there is no guarantee they will finance the loan on the property I buy.If I go the route of no rehab and no need for hard money then get pre-approval on a single family home at least if the bank says no to that house I am not stuck with  the property.I would prefer to buy a single family for rehab but I am worried about not being able to refinance away from the hard money loan.Your comments would be appreciated maybe I am worrying needlessly.Thanks,Ron
