@Brian Babbage look into a Qualified Retirement Plan (QRP).

@Eric KissingerOne thing to note -Not all owner financing is the same risk because your dealing with individual people .people do stupid things they can get sued or go bankrupt or die ..There is a big difference in risk by buying from a retiring businessman who owns the property free and clear ( best case scenario) versus a young person who still has a mortgage on it that is in over their head .

.), move your retirement to a SD IRA and invest with us, affiliated with others (Kiyosaki and Schiff) who have burned people in the past...

I have been in real estate for 14 years after retiring from Army. 

-In Depth Knowledge-Confidence-Tax Implications-An additional $100k interest received given 5 year balloon-Steady, Stress Free income to supplement retirement

LOL,, I am just old school leave your personal resi alone pay it off .. recuse that is your true retirement.

I'm on day 2 of my 45 day period to identify a replacement property.I've sold two residential properties in Boise, Idaho and I've got a 3rd that is under contract, for a total liquid cash amount of about $550k.I've also got the capability to sell more of my portfolio (about 2.5 million all cash.)Right now my overall goal is to reduce the headache and issues of dealing with property management companies who are constantly ripping me off and also just the hassle of having 13+ properties with pretty low cap rates.My goal is to just produce cash flow as I'm already kind of retired and I just want to focus on my online business, not constantly dealing with real estate.

Also, assume you're approaching retirement.

@John RennaTo learn about the 401k participant loan rules, see the following. https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/retirement-pl...

I was wondering if anyone is familiar with the following platforms and which you believe is best for someone trying to build a diverse portfolio and fund a retirement account?
