When you have this valuation form, the limit of insurance on the policy must be at least 80% of the building's value.

I'm not looking to start with $260mil, I would love to start with $5mil which I can if a partner wanted me to finance 70% separately from them.  

The check book control package look attractive, at $1095 after a July 4th $200 discount :-) https://www.broadfinancial.com/self-directed-ira-plans-custodian-checkbook-control/I will need to set up one with pretax 401K , then another with after tax Roth IRA, so, want to make sure to control the expenses/cash flow of start up costs. 

So, starting to look around.

As I am just starting up on real estate investing cash flow is my biggest focus at the time and will plan to diversify my portfolio in the future.
