Trading sweat equity in SD IRA

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but maybe not.  

I have 2 rent houses in a SDIRA.   I have someone whom I've been paying $25 do go over and do minor things like change the air filter, unclog a toilet, etc, since I'm not allowed to do this myself.  

I know someone else locally who's in the same boat.  We have the same genre of rentals.  Would it be permissible for he and I to work on each other's properties for free for these minor things?  e.g. he changes my air filters every three months, and I change his every three months.  When my renter calls with a clogged bathtub, I call him, and vice-versa.
