Here are some issues to consider in choosing an Self-directed IRA provider:1.

If you choose to use any of them, vet them through your local title attorney/company.

Some sellers choose all-cash purchase offers over higher-priced offers with conventional or FHA loan financing because they know a cash offer with proof of funds faces fewer stumbling blocks and is more likely to close.

If their is about to be a recession, your newly built home would likely be worth less than you paid for it and if you can't find quality tenants for the other 2 units you may not be able to sell it.If you do choose to go forward with the process, beware of other costs that the builder may not cover.

considering time is money, and as an investor you want to focus on building assets, buying properties, fixing /updating and renting them. what option do you choose to deal with tennts , ( I.e. following up on rent, sending notice if needed etc. ) I agree best is if you can self manage , but curious to hear if its not something you enjoy, would you rely on management company ?

You can choose to be proactive, hope for the best and prepare for the worse or be caught off guard, unprepared having no idea what to do.We are at a critical period where we should see how this is going to play out over the next few months.

Many will choose real estate as a safe haven.3) The liquidity crisis is forcing the sale of gold (and bitcoin) which are both going down, so for many loosing a ton of money in stocks does not really motivate one to go out and buy another asset we all watched crater 10 years ago.4) The role of institutional money in residential r.e. is probably not well accounted for, so is black rock going to need to liquidate a couple thousand houses in your state?

You can hire your own title company to do your side of the closing if you so choose, but that typically results in higher fees for the seller.

We are all in this together.Keep in mind your tenant probably has money, but is choosing to pay it to someone else (suppliers, facility rent, employees).

It's worth looking at several online before choosing.
