Anything falling within that description would be self-dealing and result in severe tax penalties for the IRA.A self-directed IRA allows the IRA to diversify beyond the stock market into assets such as real estate and private lending, but everything is done through the IRA and exclusively for the benefit of the IRA. 

Even just directing me to a book or article about this would be awesome.

I've been flipping for 15 years so can probably direct you to someone. 

after calling them literally every day (not an exaggeration) for an update, i resorted to calling the service rep that came out directly and only with him on the line and three-way calling HMS with me on the line using his service professional portal did we get the answer that they claimed they completed the replacement and closed the file. 

I was surprised when I looked at it and didn’t see a column with property owner’s phone numbers. did I just miss a tab on the website or is this a gap that I will have to fill by researching names and addresses, if so what tools or websites can I use. ( my apologies if this is a overly simple or direct)

But a couple things I wanted to add to you directly.

I do not have a separate company set up but do lend directly from my personal accounts.

Dan, Thanks @Dan Barli for the direction (I'm new to the site).

Permitting upgrades was interesting, because of their size, there are multiple code violations that were "excused" since they are grandfathered and the inspector could not recommend a solution. 

Hi, I hope I've put this in the correct forum but if not, please direct me where to go.
