But the case where you are buying, rehabbing and selling within your IRA would in most cases not be applicable for UBIT, here is food for thought or arguments:(1) Your IRA is not you, and your IRA is for your benefit, and is managed by a directed trustee or custodian for your benefit(2) Any investment in your IRA will be deemed as Passive Activity, since you cannot materially participate in the investment from your IRA (else it is a prohibited transaction)(3) Your IRA does not file any self employment income taxes(4) Your IRA may file UBIT based on UDFI (assuming the IRA has borrowed funds for acquisition or rehabilitation)Now if your IRA invested in an pass-through which did the flips as you describe, the entity itself first must satisfy the requirement of a "real estate operating company" to receive any exemption, else if it does not it could generate a UBIT for your IRA as an "operating company".As others have mentioned, please work with a knowledgeable professional in this space for your specific situation.

Now, if are ready and able to have that responsibility seller financing, or using investors money can be great. sellers would most likely be willing to participate because:1) They have no where to use the money if they sold the property in a typical sale.

You might consider Niche or Specialized Housing like student housing.
