Do you invest in the Cleveland market as well? 

I live in the ABQ area and looking to start investing in the area, but would love to have a partner while I get my feet wet.

C-Corps usually aren't a preferred structure for real estate.I know that with a self directed IRA all of the income has to come back to the IRA - read another way - you can't take the profits from your investments and access them today (so no passive income that you can utilize in the near term).  

It’s a market that’s been growing steadily, and I’ve learned quite a bit about the pros and cons of investing in new builds versus existing properties.

Hey all,   Like many folks here I've been interested in RE investing for a long long time. 

A Cost Segregation study is an IRS approved federal income tax tool that increases near term cash flow by utilizing shorter recovery periods for depreciation to accelerate return on investment.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

@Michael LiguoriIf you are looking to invest locally I would join local real estate investor associations and go to meet-ups to network with other investors.

They have no understanding of compound interest, time value of money, return on investment, cap rate, or anything involving math of any sort10.

You would still be required to invest 10% equity into the deal here, so your $100k investment satisfies that need.
