If you wanted to get fancy, I bet you can have triggers fired off as new tasks are added to a project to let the handyman know an open job is available.  

You can still invest in real estate with an SDIRA, but there are compliance rules you have to abide by.

Although we have yet to pull the trigger, we have done what you are planning to do in Chicago Lawn and South Shore. 

@Laura Davidson   That's totally alright, gotta know what you're getting into before pulling the trigger, I will send you an invite when we have the invites made up and ready to be sent via email!

So my next one will likely be more of a flip / BRRRR than this one which was technically almost ready to go.Just wanted to say I finally pulled the trigger and am making my way into the investment space!

Either option you choose, I think you are on the right track and will be in good shape once you pull the trigger.

Having recently deciding to seperate from the Army I finally decided to pull the trigger.

I'm in the middle of building an ADU on a property downtown but was looking at this as a next potential move, as I think it is an area of opportunity here that isn't so overcrowded with competition like a lot of the smaller multi-family properties.The one concern I had with our market in particular was zoning laws and how renting by the room would fit compliance wise to operate the most efficiently and give the tenants the best experience as well.

Hi everyone,I am an active CPA with extensive tax compliance and consulting experience in all aspects of the real estate industry as well as tax planning for the individuals that own those companies. 

I've been an observer from the sidelines just watching with a constant fear of pulling the trigger and taking massive actions instead of being in the game.
