Using your IRA to Build Real Estate Wealth via Non-Recourse Loans
Calling all investors... Looking for a way to purchase more properties, pay fewer taxes and beat the 10-loan limit imposed by Fannie Mae?
Here it is... tax-deferred and non-recourse!
Many investors are aware that they can use cash from their IRAs to purchase real estate. Fewer are aware that non-recourse loans are available to do the same.
For those who may be unfamiliar with the concept, a non-recourse loan is one where there is no personal guarantee and a loan decision is made based on the income stream of the property.
For the newbie investor, this means you won't need to use your credit or income/debt ratios to qualify for the loan. For the pro, this offers you an opportunity to exceed the Fannie Mae 10-loan limit and have your profits tax-deferred.
For a short list of requirements and to be put in contact with the IRA and tax professionals who can get you started, give us a call at 913-912-3470.

Dwight Goodwin Presents the 2012 Real Estate Market Year in Review for J...
Our final Market Report for 2012 shows a 23% increase in closed sales Year-to-date in Johnson County Kansas. The average sales price county-wide is up 2%, with areas closer in to the Kansas City Metro generally outperforming outlying areas of the county.
Real estate inventory remains much lower than 12 months ago - between 3-5 months in much of the county. In fact, both prices and inventory have stabilized sufficiently to make this the most competitive environment for sellers since 2006. Normally, these numbers would indicate a shift to strictly a sellers' market; however, perpetually low interest rates continue to make this a win-win environment for buyers and sellers alike.
Contact us today at 913-912-3470 to get your questions answered so we can move you forward in 2013!
