Partially Self Directed IRA?

[Erik Sherburne]

We are looking to buy a properties that family members were rent. We are going to seek our typical C on C return criteria but will still get a better return than the stock market - IMO. With that, I was thinking our putting this family rental in a self directed IRA but we don't have quite enough in there for the down payment, etc. Can we use all of that and also some other money outside of the IRA?

Thanks,

Erik
