I was watching Eddie Speed video and he said something to the effect that he used $100 to open up a ROTH IRA and used that account to buy a $70,000 note.

Mine is full of low income applicants.  

@John Thedford why not make a phone call to your insurance agent and tell them an applicant is a cop and has his police dog and that you want him as a long term tenant.

Most of the posts here are asking where to find contractors, vet them, or referrals, personally I think by giving these files to them but using them carefully will help you vet if they are flaky or not, companies or GCs that know how to fill these and can comply to this will be a bit pricey, but I am 90% sure that they are of medium caliber and will be reliable than your "2 guys with tools".Files Uploaded:CKCC Daily Sign In Sheet - MOST IMPORTANT DURING A FLIP CKCC Project Budget Sample CKCC TEMPLATE Payment Application Sample CKCC Invoice CKCC Conditional Waiver and Release on Final PaymentCKCC Conditional Waiver and Release on Progress Payment CKCC Unconditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment CKCC Unconditional Waiver and Release on Progress Payment CKCC Residential Improvement Contract - Rehab Contract CKCC Residential Time and Material Contract Notices After Contract Signing CKCC Certificate of Completion CKCC Quote Request Form CKCC Purchase Order FormGood luck and happy hunting!

Or, perhaps they own the property free-and clear, but want a fast sale and don't need all their funds at closing.Loan professionals are mostly in business to collect fees (interest, points, application fees, etc.), whether you make money on your deal or not; sellers like those above just want their problems fixed.

Also watch out for rules that would impact your tenancy i.e. no rentals with short term leases or leases less than 2 years, or no renting out individual rooms, or no rentals to individuals with different last names.  

It's not a cool as putting in a lot of work, risk, time, money, and hope in a deal and then watch it take off better than you expected! 

@Cameron PriceAs others have mentioned, the Solo 401k will likely serve your needs better than an IRA (whether just a custodial self directed IRA or an IRA LLC).To setup a Solo 401k, you'll complete an application with the provider of your choice so they can get the information they need to create the plan and trust documents for you.
