I would love to do use a land contract and use Self Directed IRA money to potentially work something out.  

@Kaitlyn CastilloShort term rentals are high cashflow relative to any other REI, especially if you self manage to start.

@Henry ClarkMini Storage Newbie In Southern California looking at 360 unit mini storage (Small I know)Best rate 65% LTV 3.7% i/o 10 years Looking for higher LTVBest place to look for self/mini storage for sale?

In return for working with the broker and investor the buyer gets a guide in a sort of ways to help through the process.Also there are specific organizations for self storage, retail, industrial etc. and they have very specific books that can be useful.You have to be careful with books also.

PM I highly recommend even if you think you have the spare time to self-manage. 

If you are self motivated and you find yourself talking about Real Estate to Friends and others coming to you for advice it can lead to deals.

Pretty much move-in-ready but had to do about 5600 in cosmetic and electric work; Renting for $850/month and self-managing for a monthly cash flow of $189.

I’m currently aggressively educating my self trying to read at least 4 books a month while also driving for dollars and going to as many R.E.I meetups within a 65 mile radius of my home, which is in Sarasota Fl.

I have a few options, got prequalified for conventional loans, loan to purchase STR in Mexico, I have a HELOC I can tap into and I can create a Self directed IRA and purchase something with that.
