I'd look at places at say 75,000 population + but not innercity over 200,000, personal thing, I hate traffic for one thing, but you also get more competition, lose that small bank relationships, generally have more metro regulations, health and building code issues and it's much harder to get into an influencial positions in the community, you may only get to be a small fish in a big pond.

I haven't even read my first book on it (waiting until Lonnie Scruggs updates "Deals on Wheels," for 2014 regulations), so excuse the confusion, but seller financing would entail buying a mobile home and selling it for little down and monthly installments, correct?

Then, you should be able to select the folks you want to work with.Closers and title plants are highly regulated, don't start out with screwy stuff.If you think you know RE and you're getting back in, start with the basics again, see if 43,560 sq. ft. rings a bell.

You would not be allowed, per IRS regulations, to use that IRA money, within the IRA account, and personally take out a mortgage for the balance of the purchase as it is a prohibited transaction to use an IRA asset as collateral for a personal loan.The good news is that your IRA/Solo(k) CAN take out its own mortgage in the form on a non-recourse loan.
