*Have you come across the "70% Rule" (of thumb)?

So when they reached out to you were they saying they lend everywhere in the country or did they have restrictions?

There are different rules if you are an agent than is you are just an investor.

Solid strategy in finding lenders, don't forget to leverage what you find here on BP.Questions that I think are valuable to ask:How do you structure deals, LTV/Rehab financing, ARV-LTV restrictions?

I spent 30+ years in Washington State and have had some involvement with DSHS (although not with housing).My advice to you: 1) Everything the state does takes three times as long as it should and three times as much paperwork as it should.  2)  You will probably have to attend some indoctrination -- I mean class -- either on-line or in person.  3) Your tenant will be endlessly "educated" on their rights and will have free legal representation. 4 ) Just when you think you know the rules and try to play by them, an administrator will come up with an "ETR" -- Exception to Rule. 

FHA also has a rule called “Net Self Sufficiency” meaning the total mortgage payment must be less than the total rental income on the property.

The IRA will remain an inherited IRA and retain the same rules with respect to your required distributions over time.There are several quality providers of such programs active here on BP. 

I have to follow the rules here!

Hey @Ryan Dossey, what is the rule here? 

Yes the rules allow for investing multiple solo 401k plans in the same property.
