I have a 4 door sedan so a sofa won't fit in it.

It seems as though you did your homework and found someone that fits your strategy and style.

Once you have their contact info, you can speak to them directly and see if it's a fit.

I'll give you what we believe are the pros/cons of each and you can decide if they fit your need.

Bringing my buyers that fit over to them.

If they are heavily against this transaction then they're not the right fit for this strategy and they should look into purchasing outright on their own or just simply renting.If you're looking to do this strategy in Texas you're not going to be able to, like Brian pointed out.

That said, a Checkbook IRA LLC is a great tool, and you should speak with someone knowledgeable about these plans to help you determine which will be the better fit for your situation and goals.Fidelity and all of the mainstream brokerages offer Solo 401(k) plans, but those plans will be limited to stock market investing and not self-directed with the capacity to invest in real estate.There are several providers such as Accuplan that offer truly self-directed Solo 401(k) plans.  

Brian, though I am located in Israel I am a bit familiar with some of the top Memphis suburbs that may fit your needs which also have excellent school systems .

I don't normally do flips, but this one doesn't fit the rental model I want.  

PM's choose vendors based on many factors and most don't fit the bill.No doubt insurance is important but I've yet to meet an owner who actually understood what a PM's insurance does and what questions they should be asking regarding insurance.
