Dear all, I need money to start investing, and the only source of cash is my IRA.

If it is truly a great deal, I would think there would be a private money source out there. 

Prior to that I had co-managed 95 properties and have been in the real estate industry full time since 1985.Having a PM company will be critical to your investment success.  

What to do depends on many variables such as other sources of income, retirement goals and overall future plans.IN GENERAL, you'll want to look into the benefits of an S-Corp and see if that structure is right for you.  

@Ahmad Hijazi  for me I am at the twilight of my ownership in rentals only have 5 left out of 350 + houses.for cap ex for someone who does not have significant reserves I think this is critical...

Your approach of finding an experienced agent and lender is critical, because the agent will have to build in that expectation up front. 

Look for similar properties currently for rent in the area and contact the landlords.They can be your best source for cash buyers if they are multiple property owners looking to expand.Also go down to the courthouse and attend the foreclosure auctions to meet cash buyers buying homes on a weekly basis for rehab and resale.Walk up to them with your business cards and your 3 properties info and ask what type of properties they buy on a regular basis and ask them for their card in return.

What is critical to do before a lot of this though is develop a game plan or investment strategy that fits your goals and overall intentions when working the field of real estate in general.  

I'm confident my business acumen, dedication, creativity, and attention to detail will be critical to my success moving forward.Best of luck in all of your business endeavors everyone! 

I'm hoping that one day I can strategically make my cash flow in such a way that student loans and job security are no longer a source of stress.
