I noticed that one of my bed legs (has a wheel) has really worn away at the wood floor (maybe 5 inches length x 1-2inches in width) probably from me sliding the bed at times back into place.

I am not sure if the numbers for your first franchise will work if you plan to run it at arm's length.

What was (1) the timeline between your offer being submitted and you acquiring the property and (2) the length of the rehab?

In taking a conservative look at VRBO, this place appears to be in the $250-400 per day range for the prime summer weeks (July/Aug).I'm interested to hear how many weeks you are able to get "max" rent and how your rental rates and length of stay changes during the shoulder and off-season.Any input is greatly appreciated!!

You can search for examples here on BP as many other investors have gone this route.The most important thing to note is when investing with an IRA/Solo 401k is that you need to keep it at arm's length.

Length of time to find a tenant is not my biggest concern, the right tenant who pays on time and cares for the place is paramount.

Headache VS upside and the length of time to get there.

If you are a buy and hold investor I don't see why you would want them out unless they have pit bulls,unkept place etc.You will have reconditioning costs to get re-rented again that could be substantial if they have lived there for any length of time.You need to get the tenant to sign a letter that you can talk to their case worker.You can't do the 30 days at least not in my state.

All transactions you do inside of a self-directed IRA must be "arms length", meaning that you personally can't do any work on them, provide any service, or benefit from the investments in any way.

I suspect it is partially due to the length of time a child will spend in the Elementary school and the desire to not disrupt the child, during that time.)
