How to use a self directed IRA with checkbook control

I got into finance and investing about a year ago and have been able to save up about 5k cash, 6k in my roth ira, and 5k in a brokerage account.

He has a passion for real estate and tax law and knows every aspect of investing from self-directed IRAs to structuring your company correctly from a tax perspective.

Down the road you can roll it into a Self Directed IRA and use that to invest in real estate, but in order to do that you typically have to leave your employer.At the end of the day it's a very personal decision.

it was low cost, i can turn attic into a few more bedrooms very easy. it was a seller financed deal from a friends self directed ira.

Also, at your age, you've got a good start, so I would recommend getting into the habit of saving 10% of your earn income into an account like a mutual fund or IRA that you can not touch until retirement. 

Please note I currently have a 401k/IRA that I max annually along with an investment fund thatI save 4k per month toward as well.my Big question is, would you take the 150k and reinvest into the investment fund?

You started with your IRA or your own cash?

I know that the first step before investing is to have your personal finances in order so I've opened up my Roth IRA (my job doesn't offer a 401k), paid off my credit card, and started saving up in an online savings account.
