@Brad Kanouse,I believe this is a duplicate of this post:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/1210256-usin...But regardless, here is my answer:If you take a distribution from an IRA - it will be subject to taxes and penalties.You can convert your IRA into a "Self-directed IRA" and have the IRA buy the property, in this case you are not the owner, the IRA is.

I'm confused why would you say that rental income is taxed in an IRA?

@Carl FischerHas anybody invested in PPR within their Roth IRA?

Quote from @Daniel Saravia: anybody here had bought real estate using self directed IRA?

On a go forward basis, I would not own real estate within an IRA.

Looking for advice and suggestions for a Roth IRA Custodian I'm looking to roll over a traditional IRA to a Self-directed Roth by the end of the year, and use that for my investing.

If IRA owns the property wouldn’t all rental income have to go directly into the IRA?  

Is an IRA subject to capital gains tax?

Of course - having a w-2 job will never prevent you from setting up an IRA including a self-directed IRA.If yes, how can I fund it?

If you had $50K in a Self direct IRA how would you leverage that to yield short and long term dividends?
