And if you go to one of those big firms, that have different lawyers, with different specialties, you will pay a minimum of 1 hour for every time that an associate reads any new occurance and then also pay for the lawyer to read the same, and possible time for that associate to bring that file to another lawyer involved, and also time for him/her to read the new details.

I've seen fees associated from 5-10% of gross income plus leasing fees etc.

@Bart Libsock, the well's deeper and the water sweeter as a developer but there is a cost associated as @Jay Hinrichs alluded to.  

We were able to agree on the "moving out" process of her possesions and timelines associated with rent, etc. 

I use the SD IRA for performing notes due to the legal costs associated with NPN's in the event of foreclosure etc,  I want the constant payment coming in to build up my IRA.  

In the case of #1, there's always a buyer for every property, but I'm curious to know why the condo wasn't maintained by the association.

Locate and attend several different local Real Estate Investing Association (REIA) meetings.

Duriel Taylor Also  look up your local REIA Group real estate investment association, it is great networking & a great place to meet like minded people who don't mind sharing their experiences & helping you find buyers & great deals.

Use a different bank if you have to.The IRA LLC may use a debit card, since there is no credit association.

If it was a business associate I would put my foot down if I wasn't comfortable.
