As a licensed Realtor, you are providing a service of value, and if you were to give that to your IRA for free, you are in effect adding value to the IRA - which could constitute a self-dealing, prohibited transaction.  

Doesn't make it any less legal, however :PBy that logic, you would almost want to work MORE with a licensed wholesaler since he/she would have to tread lightly.Moreover, once could argue that there are more experienced unlicensed wholesalers than licensed ones, and it's experience that you fear (fear of getting taken advantage of) when you hear "licensed."
