Confused- What to do w/a Self Directed IRA?

[Tammi M.]

Hey~

I am new in my REI and starting with wholesaling. I have not gotten my first deal yet.

I currently have 9 offers out from my June marketing campaign and 2 that have responded w/motivation. 

I have also recently put 15K in a Self Directed IRA...

I don't have enough in there to buy/hold anything right now. But, I was thinking that I need to put it to work in some type of very short term loan (90-120 days or less)..to make some type of return.

Is that a viable option?

If so, what does that look like.... how should that be structured?

Or,

Should I just wait and put money in as I close wholesale deals to fatten up the pot for later.

I guess I'm confused on what I can do now w/this account to generate a return.?.?.?

Any suggestions would be appreciated...

Thank you!
