@Richard NguyenHere are some of the downsides of putting real estate into a self directed IRA or 401k.No tax deductions: You can’t claim deductions for property taxes, mortgage interest, depreciation, repairs, improvements and other property-related expenses.Property expenses: All expenses, repairs, and maintenance costs must be paid with IRA or 401k funds, and you must pay others to do repairs and manage the property.

As the eventsponsor I was able to attend all the initial training or free and am not one to buy a bootcamp let alone a mentor program.How ever I purchased Eddies Mentoring and was able to connect with Dave Van Horn and several others in the 2nd Space where I focus a lot of my attention.I was able to gain access to a $2000 training product that I didn't really need, but that gave me the back end website access to cash buyers and private lenders databases that usually have an ongoing fee (was included)Was also able to gain access to an asset protection set up program, included.It also came with a credit repair program that I use to help my lease option buyers clear up their credit issues.Over the years new things have been added in at cost or discounted pricing such as a a 4 day week end of Self Directed IRA training with some of the nations leading experts in a small 15 person setting, this was provided to us as mentor students and the networking from this gave us access to attend a 5 day cruise with 2 days training and unlimited access to some of the nations top experts in self directed IRA and real estate investing.So did the mentoring program cost $20,000 . . . yes it did.
