Q: What do I do if I don't have enough money to buy real estate in my IRA?

A: You may partner with yourself or others; you may make allowable contributions; you may obtain debt financing through private sources or financial institutions on a non-recourse basis; you may arrange a seller carry back loan; you may sell other assets in your IRA to raise cash to make the purchase; you may transfer funds from other IRAs or rollover funds from qualified plans, such as 401(k), 403(b) or government 457 plans you may have had with employers where you no longer work for.
