The mortgage must be a non-recourse loan.
  You cannot guarantee a loan for any amount. In the case of an LLC, the operation agreement must state there is no additional capital requirement for the plan  
  If there is any deficiency, you cannot deposit your own money to the plan bank account. There are only two ways to handle the deficiency:
    a. From your annual contribution to the IRA
    b. The bank has to liquidate your real estate to get "paid off"
 
  Therefore, careful planning of the rental income and expenses is very important. The bank usually will request more money in the escrow account.  
  There is a requirement to file form 990T with the Internal Revenue Service on or before the April 15. This is called UBTI - Unrelated Business Taxable Income because of debt financing. For LLC or LP, usually your investment sponsor will prepare 990T-k1 for your account.  
   
 
 
The trust will receive all rental deposits and pay all expenses through the plan account. It cannot be handled through you.
  Rental income checks should be addressed to "IBC Trust, custodian FBO your name IRA"  
  Repetitive expenses such as loan payments, insurance, taxes, utilities, etc. should be set up for automatic monthly payments to IBC Trust.  
  For extra expenses such as repairs, forward the invoice to IBC Trust, and IBC Trust will pay the bill.  
  Appraisal is required every 3 to 5 years.  
  You can hire a third party manager, but not a disqualified person.
