What the #*&$? 17%+ Real Estate Returns in Your IRA Account?
Believe it or not, IRA investing in Real Estate is one of today's hottest topics for generating wealth--tax deferred or in some cases tax free. On Friday, October 10, we had the privilege of hosting a conference call with Rob Spalding of Pensco Trust Company, a New Hampshire chartered, single-service special asset custodian for self-directed IRAs with an expertise in Real Estate investing. Here's what you must know: you can invest IRA funds as debt or equity in real estate and build wealth in real estate inside your IRA just as you would with stocks, bonds, or mutual funds. What's wonderful about this opportunity is that you don't have to worry about what the hucksters on Wall Street are doing with your hard earned retirement dollars. You can actually own, operate, and touch your asset with your own hands you know where your dollars are, what they're doing for you, and how much you're actually making in positive tax deferred cash flow and appreciation. You don't have to worry about 1031 exchanges when buying and selling investment property and you can also co-invest with other real estate IRA investors in the same deal. So what's the catch? The IRS has issued specific guidelines that must be followed for these IRA real estate investments to be considered legitimate, which is why you need a team of real estate and IRA advisory professionals to help you correctly acquire, structure, manage, and dispose of your real estate investments. With Rob's permission, we recorded our recent conference call and have made it available for free for you to play. It's about 30 minutes and touches on many of the key points in IRA real estate investing. For more information about how to unlock and build wealth with real estate in your IRA, contact us today. We also have deals on hand that would qualify for an IRA investment in real estate, providing returns as high as 17%. Call now for more information 617-674-2043.

Why You Must Buy for Cash Flow--It's Today's Solution to Tomorow's Wealth
Money...It seems to be all anyone cares about these days. It's all over the news and all we're hearing about is the implosion and consolidation of the banking industry. The big news today was of Wells Fargo's move to purchase Wachovia for $15B. Earlier this week we heard about Chase buying Washington Mutual. The list goes on. Here's a big hint of what this means to you. Your financing options have moved from Wall Street to Main Street. Take your local banker out to lunch and nurture that relationship. You're going to need it.
What else does big change this mean for you? Well, it's pretty simple. The days of buying property and believing that an exit in 2-3 years with a big return from appreciation are all but over for the time being. It's time to return to buying property based on core fundamentals built around cash flows, solid, real, positive cash flows. If you buy for cash flow and you focus on the fundamentals, the exit will take care of itself, your deal will be financible, and you'll get your original investment back more quickly--something everyone's concerned about these days.
A quick look at the math will demonstrate that purchasing for cash flow works. You get your money back faster and if the market's soft when you go to sell, big deal. You've got other people paying down your mortgage and you're on the track to financial independence, using other people's money to pay your way in the world.
We've got a few deal like this on the market right now. One of them is a 100% leased office/retail property built in 2005 that throws of a 10% cash on cash return the day you close on it. Email me if you're interested in more information. It's getting a lot of action. Here's my address: Jeremy@Mansardcre.com.
