IRA Investing in Real Estate!

Did you know the #1 untapped source for real estate investment funds is your IRA or 401K? Since 1974, a little know law has allowed retirement account holders to direct their IRA's to buy and sell real estate.
2 recent developments have brought this technique to the forefront. The first is President Bush's signing into law (August 2006) of mandantory retirement account offerings by all employers. The second is the formation of a national finance company named FirstIRAMortgage. FirstIRAMortgage will finance up to 80% LTV of the real estate purchase with the down payment coming from a self directed IRA.

Trouble in the Florida Real Estate Investment Market?

Investors Coming Back to Haunt Florida Builders

Builders in Florida who grew accustomed during the industry's recent boom times to selling out their developments even before a shovel went into the ground are noticing a stark shift in the marketplace and could find themselves in trouble if they don't take steps to manage investors who are nearing closing day with neither the intention nor the means to close on those sales.
"Get control over those investors before they close," Robert J. Kanjian, president of Building Solutions LLC in West Palm Beach, warned builders attending the Southeast Building Conference earlier this month in Orlando, Fla. "Get your sales team's head out of the sand. What are investors going to do? Can they close? Today, you want the closing," he said, and builders facing a problem with investors can "get ahead of them on that deal" by using assignment options.
