I suggest that you decide if you want to keep your IRA in the stock market or obtain full control over it and have the ability to invest in alternative assets.

That may be a better solution than taking it to foreclosure, in this case I don't see GMAC eating 45K exceeding such alternatives and perhaps having some things done, protecting the collateral, and holding it for sale.The other factor is the borrower information, likelihood of obtaining a deficiency judgment or will they be headed to bankruptcy?

Thank you @Justin Case @David Sugg @Val CsontosI appreciate your comments.David, to answer your question (I realize you weren't necessarily looking for answers but more for me to ask myself those questions, but incase others want the answers for their feedback).The current tenant will be moving out this fall (building their own home) so the improvements are for the next tenant, the idea was to complete the work while the current tenant is in place and completed before marketing for next tenant.Yes the addition (finishing lower level - 1 bed, 1 bath, living room) would add value if I were to sell, and more important to me increase rental income.No super sexy deal as an alternative to this optionIt would take me 6mo to replenish my war chest to the same levelWife doesn't have an opinion either way, she trust my decisionsThanks again.
