@Lee RipmaThank you!!!

Hi Lee,Sorry, I'm not familiar at all with the RES loan?

@Su Lee Glad to provide the link to the podcast hosted by @Taylor L.It's accessible at: https://www.passivewealthstrategy.com/self-directed-ira-myths-what-are-udfi-and-ubit-with-bernard-reisz/The question that you're looking to get answered is addressed (I believe) somewhere in that episode, but there are certainly other great resources for that - as well as plenty of unreliable resources on the web.When looking for an account-type for yourself, the best guidance that I can give is that you work with a company that provides multiple account-types (401k/QRP/SDIRA/401k-LLC/QRP-LLC/IRA-LLC, etc.) - so that you get the account that fits you best.A service-provider that only delivers a single account-type is too likely to mislead and misinform, because these are definitely not "one-size-fits-all." 

We have only dealt with Mark Kohler directly, although we do have the contact info for his Irvine partner, Lee Chen, if we can't get a hold of Mark in a time critical situation, whatever that might be.As Bryan said, I don't believe in the "one stop shop" for legal advice either.

@Austin Lee  I would say do not give up on your dreams!

That being said, our taxes in Lee County are roughly 2% of assessed value.
