Of course, Seller being incredibly hard and insisting that for an 'as-is' deal its no repairs at all.  

I'm also talking with all my vendors at work that may have some inside info on how to get things moving so I'm hoping that will produce results as well.

Sometimes that means not having the ideal personal property to begin with, but one that produces a nice cash flowing income.

By investing the IRA in real estate, you will retain that investment capital and can acquire more or better properties as a result, which will produce higher overall returns than you could personally with the reduced amount post-distribution.There is a lot of good information on BP regarding self directed plans.  

That is incredible. 

However, as I was trying to keep that one from falling apart at the last minute I came across another incredible deal on auction.com which I am happy to say just got bank approval!! 

We have a good ins broker here in town, he gets reasonable homeowner's ins for our owner fi houses, and the car ins he just got me was incredibly cheap. 

Safe rents but lower cap rates.Contrast this with the Midwest or the Northeast where you can pickup rentals for well under $100k in bad/recovering/gentrifying/undiscovered neighborhoods that produce amazing cash flow but many more headaches. 

It's incredibly easy to show, pretty great rents, but best of all, the tenants are fantastic.

I was wondering if there is a natural tendency for Real Estate Investors to be drawn to this type of "investing" - investing your time and internet marketing savviness to generate passive income producing assets like web pages, affiliate marketing content, etc.
