So I"m just learning about self directed IRA and it seems there's quite a few possibilities that is available if I can properly use this strategy to buy real estate.

My accountant likes it as I can send him a copy of my file and get his direct input where needed.It also lets me track each asset individually and track WIP for each property so I can get accurate profit and loss statements as I go. 

If you decide to go this route keep in mind that this would be 5-year loan so the payments would be pretty high.If your 401k is with the past employer - you might be able to roll it over into self-directed IRA.

I plan to use a hard money lender and I will use 15k of my own cash to secure the deal.ARV - 155,000Asking price - 90,000Purchase price - 70000Estimated repairs - 20,000 *This link comes directly from our calculators, based on information input by the member who posted.

While I have personally done a number of direct single family and small multifamily investments, this would be my first foray into a syndicated deal.

I'd like to possibly go that direction in the future - or do something like a fix and hold and rent - but at the moment, it's not in my wheelhouse.
