I've read about self directed IRAs (just learned about them) and I am also totally cool with gutting my accounts.

Our business is currently changing directions and we aren't flipping/wholesaling as much as before.  

With a self directed IRA or a solo 401k plan?

Your expenses sound more directly attributable to the acquisition of the property itself.

I also plan on attending two REI meetings this month in my area to hopefully network there but I wanted to try to get a handle and direction on this to be more prepared for my meeting on Saturday.Thank you everyone for your time in advance!

Hello everyone,I am in search of a strategy that will allow me to use my current network of professionals who are directly related to RE investing.

The judge isn't going to look at that in the best light. 

This is not uncommon as most small developers try to avoid involving the City in light renovation, but this seems to be more than light reno work.Is there a way to still make this deal work?

My understanding is that an LLC is meant to be the same as owning it directly for tax purposes.  

I did have an incident when doing a light renovation.
