Quote from @Ryan Daulton: Since learning that cash flow from real estate that was purchased from self-directed IRAs is taxed, and that I would not be able to claim depreciation on this property, what are the advantages to buying real estate with self-directed IRAs vs. other investment types like stocks and mutual funds?

This could cost around $500 to $1,500 per unit, depending on the size and complexity of the project.Certifications: There may be additional costs for certifications (such as HERS ratings) or third-party testing to verify the energy efficiency of each unit.For a 90-unit project, you could be looking at costs in the range of:$45,000 to $135,000 for energy modeling and certification (depending on the cost per unit).For a 112-unit project, the costs would likely be:$56,000 to $168,000 for similar services.Tax Credit Calculation:If you meet the energy standards, you can claim up to $2,000 per unit.

Federal Tax Benefits: You can claim depreciation deductions and may qualify for credits like Low-Income Housing Tax Credits or New Markets Tax Credits for eligible projects.3.

I'd go to Small Claims Court (<$7000. in MA).
