Invest in Real Estate Under a Tenancy in Common (TIC)Under this method, title is taken in both the IRA owner’s name and in the name of his or her IRA.

Not a huge profit margin but I'm okay with it because we will be living in it for a few years.If we didn't do all the exterior work (kept the flat roof just replace it) and the mini splits and trimmed away all the bells and whistles we could get it down to about 2100 per month and still rent it for 1400.

I use this method to purchase my first property and it took a bit longer than I wanted to season the property but did work out well for us.

High end trim work, door knobs, light  fixtures can really add up.

Hi there, I considered using Miracle Method on one bath, but the quote never arrive.  

If you want to take the DIY method for it, bring it home, stack it with little boards in between it for airflow, tarp it and set off 3-4 bug bombs under the tarp.  

Trimming the shrubbery, mowing the lawn, and planting a few flowers can add a lot of appeal to your property.

This might sound harsh, but regardless of tenant's situation, we simply allow the 2 methods of rent payment.

However, what caught my attention to BiggerPockets in the first place were the podcasts about finding private lenders and using someone else's money based on the value of the house, not on how much money I had personally and what my credit score looked like.My brother and I studied the "no money down" Dave Del Dotto method, to no avail; I worked with an investor who flipped houses.  

Most other methods of investing require much more risk (putting up your own money or credit rating) and are unable to just walk away if the deal doesn't pan out so a greater percentage of people there are looking for win/win scenarios.
