What would this strategy be and why would it benefit in our current economy over others?

I never offer any special compensation unless it benefited me personally beyond the deal itself.

Benefits: I put a sign on the lawn and in 1 week I have more groups of students than I can handle. 

hi Melida. i currently own a 2 family in the bronx and also bought i using an FHA loan. i purchased a home that was being sold FSBO. he agreed to drop the price 15k off the bat since he was saving the agents comission. i just used an attorney provided by my employers pre paid legal benefit. no agents were used. i am biased but i think the Fordham/Jerome area is a great area to invest.

I plan to listen alot more than speak though I work now using mainly open ended questions so I know how to use silence to benefit me.

Then that's where you can buy using your VA loan benefit.

Creates more of a hassle than the benefits it provides. 

It will still be a tax-sheltered retirement plan and everything has to be done at arm's length and exclusively for the benefit of the retirement plan. 

Keep in mind that it would not be "your" investment, an IRA would own the property, the income would belong to the IRA and you personally would not be allowed to benefit from the IRA or any investments it owns. 

I am about to get my real estate license next month, and am getting it solely for my benefit as a real estate investor.
