@Al Williamson so you have done this before (negative pressure system) and its an effective method?

There is a specific method of calculation, but for simple rough estimates you can assume the net profit of the transaction being taxable at trust tax rates.http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p598.pdf2014 Trust Tax rates followSo, if you were to make about $30K on a transaction, figure you are going to give up about 33% and end up with a $20K return to the IRA.  

I am happy this community/tool exists and is very helpful.I ultimately am a buy/hold investor, however I would say I will adapt depending on the property and what I have to work with.

Ya I understand that when going through a traditional lending method.

We are buy and hold investors who have turned this crazy "transient lifestyle" into a method for investing.

Please provide your marketing methods.

Down the road, I see myself doing small to midsize multifamily projects, and my dream would be to do ground-up development and adaptive reuse projects.

Out of ALL the methods community, which one would you suggest for a newcomer?

We supplement meetings with Skype and other methods of communications.If you are set on finding a CPA local to you, contact your state board and ask for referrals.Let me know if you have any questions.

I'm questioning the methods for making an offer on a wholesale deal to the seller.
