@Chaunna Henry, you posted under the Houston Real Estate Forum.

I need help from smart people on this forum to decide whether my rental property should be sold or kept.

I just went into contract with two beautiful SFH in good suburbs of San Antonio, TX for approx 220k each, and need loans of 120k on each of the properties.I've never taken out a private money loan before, and am very nervous about finding a company that is genuine, as I've read the tales on the forum here, and also have Googled one company and read the many complaints about how these scam operations work.

Just wondering if there is already a forum out there that is covering this?

I've been reading some of the forums in BP and I know some say to educate yourself, then build a buyers list.

I’m really excited about this forum

A good primer on tax-advantaged accounts (IRAs, HSAs) can be found on the Mad FIentist site (https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/846/topics/563476-ep-18-accessing-retirement-funds-before-59-1-2-w-the-mad-fientist, https://www.madfientist.com/ultimate-retirement-account/).My background: I worked for many years as an independent contractor through a temporary help agency.

I called several listed in forums and several local but they do not cover AK. 

I would suggest that you continue to search for information in the BP forums and also listen to their podcasts.

This is exactly why these forums are so helpful.
