Socrattt – How long ago did you do this?
One solution that a vast majority of our real estate investor clients to use is a “Self Directed Real Estate IRA”. This is a tax free rollover!
Essentially you roll over/convert your current IRAs/401k/etc into a Self Directed IRA at one of the self directed IRA custodians. Thus they transfer your funds from Citi, Morgan, Fidelity, etc to these self directed firms and you are free to use these funds for real estate based investments, etc.
Once done you can invest in virtually anything you want, when you want to. You can invest in investment real estate, make real estate loans, etc. You could even invest in a hot dog stand if you felt so inclined.
Now the same rules about forbidden transactions apply (cannot lend to your family, or buy a vacatin home for yourself, etc).
We’ve found freedom from Wall Street by being able to invest in debt/equity in real estate with funds that were previously held hostage by the large brokerages.
Google “Self Directed IRA” and become enlightened. Most people have never heard of this process as the big boys want to crush it.
You’ll find a lot of info, and custodians. Over the years we’ve narrowed our custodian providers down to two who provide great service at the lowest relative fees.

clearfundParticipantWe own commercial and residential (foreclosures/lots) in AZ and CA. We chose AZ over NV for one simple reason: its economy is diversified across many different, mature industries. NV is nowhere near as diversified.
thus we believe that PHX has the industrial/corporate infrastructure in place at an attractive cost structure for employment that it will be more sustainable in when we see growth again.

clearfundParticipantIf you believe rates will be rising and we are in a Treasuries bubble (which I believe) since we are at historically low rates/high values then one option is to buy a Short US TBill ETF fund or an Ultra Short TBill ETF.
You will get a very correlated inverse return and thus will make money as rates rise. Go for the ETF versions (just google short tbill etf) as the fees are minimal and liquidity is high.
When rates spike north of some high number buy the Tbills in your IRA and just hold them. My attorney used his retirment to buy bonds when rates were 18% or so and all his partners laughed at him…well he collected 18% interest and then cash in big when rates dropped later.
Alternatively with my IRA funds I’ve started buying 1st Trust Deeds earning 7%-14% depending. Keeping leverage sub 70% I view it as an option to buy at 30% off today’s value that pays me apx 10% in the meantime.

February 16, 2010 at 7:35 PM in reply to: There is an 83% chance your loan was originated illegally? #513759clearfundParticipantfunny how people didn’t care about paperwork when they get the $$$$, but when they have to give it back somehow they were wronged….my guess is that over 90% of people knew what they were getting as for loan terms, and just didn’t care about what could go wrong, cause it never would…now they are crying.
No sympathy from us who didn’t overleverage and are now paying off your mess up.
