This means that really any lending institution can offer 15% if they offer Fannie products.

I do see Airbnb as a slicker product and strengthening their position in my market which was not their traditional space (higher end rental in mexico).

wow I just looked up the RMR-86 and have to say that is an amazing product!!!

Last year I brokered a deal with a church where I lease space from them, rehabbed the space, then sublease to a video production company.

With a new loan product available, you can pursue a buy-and-hold project with a "flipper mentality".  

I've used sentricon, pumped hundreds of gallons of poison....recently though I found my new favorite product.....termidor foam on termites and had success.

I've called my bank and they have no product to help me (and had no knowledge of what an SDIRA LLC is)...and maybe there is no option but thought I would check with others.When establishing a checkbook IRA what do people do for the actual checking account...meaning,If I have 200k that I want access to I understand the steps required to establish this SDIRA but I hate to leave 200k in a checking account and earning nothing or very nearly nothing in investment interest...I will have the 200k sit there until I find the right investment, maybe the investment doesn't use the entire 200k, and/or then there is the money coming back in from rents I don't really want that to sit either.I do realize that I can buy other investments via this account but what is the best way to do so while still remaining liquid so I can pull the trigger on the right opportunity?
