Rather than going through the RMD process, I'm considering just taking a full distribution of several properties I have in an SDIRA. 

My thought process thus far has been to buy safe and smart so a good looking property I buy now isn't easily put into the red once the market turns and rent drops.For example, I aim for $150+ cash flow / month (SF currently).

I can tell you many families that live in northern Illinois are either in the process or discussing moving over the border to Wisconsin.

I'd love to learn how the process goes for you.  

This seperates these 2 processes and lets you tackle each on much more favorable terms.

I am actually in the process of doing it right now.

I did have one in 2017 Vacant for 45 Days, (June 30 - August 15) but I was in process of updating during that time.

I wanted to show my gratitude and offer advice and answer any questions for those looking to smooth out their process.

Instead of a 2 year eviction process he is allowed to just turn off the utilities, call the local law enforcement and have them removed for trespassing.

.$1234 = Rate extension lock fee$1357= Prepaids$477 = Appraisals$1095 = loan processing feeThey took $1792 from me in Dec 2017 for appraisals and initial fee and fooled me by giving 3.875 but in reality my rate turns out to be 4.25 and it will take me 7+ years to recover all this fee ($3024 + 1234 = around $4300).
