I did not know of the change and I chose Relay based on the positive review from nerdwallet and on Trust Pilot.

I listened to a few podcasts from Advanta on how to invest in tax liens in a self-directed IRA, however the management fees charged by Advanta are rather large compared to other retirement fund options...I also found a few audiobooks from the library and listened to them:Brian Mahoney - Tax Lien Certificates Property Investing.C.R.

What options do we have?

I'm more interested in this approach vs REITs/ syndicates, because I reckon with the right partnership, I stand to make far more by not paying such high fees on those traditionally passive options.

I am weighing the options of converting my single family home into a rental, verses selling it.

I built out ancillary revenue at my previous position and it was really hit or miss.

@Don KonipolSo we have a short term loan with someone and as part of the loan they paid all the interest upfront (12 month loan), loan is maturing and they have extension options (for a fee) - they asked about the extensions and we said it was X amount for the extension and you would also start paying the monthly interest as well.They flipped out and am like what do you mean I have to pay interest ?

Based on my understanding of the Customer functionality in Quickbooks, I agree that for real estate investors who might want a more cost effective option can utilize the Customer features (available in the Simple Start and Essentials version) instead of classes.

Here are some specifics:Purchase price: $955KSeller Finance offer: 20% ($190K)Reno cost: $90K Ideally we would like to do a Morby Method where we purchase the home via conventional mortgage or hard money lender and on the back end have the seller lend us the $190K with a second position lien on the property and a 5-year payback.

There are so many options for RE investing.
