@Daniel DietzYour analysis is in the right direction, but not quite there.1) Determine the debt financing ratio - in this case .602) 60% of the gross income is then looked at by UDFI3) 60% of all deductible expenses are applied, so 60% of straight-line depreciation, 60% of the interest on the note, 60% of property taxes, etc.4) $1000 exemption applies5) The net amount after deductions and exemptions is then taxable to the IRA, and the trust tax table is used to determine the tax amount.Even if you have a negative UDFI liability, it can be worth filing the 990-T in case you can carry that loss forward to future years.We have a UDFI calculator on our website and if you PM me, I can send a link to you (BP does not want me posting that outside content on their forums).

Since you have great flexibility with the self-directed Solo 401k you can decide when it makes sense for you to make pre-tax contributions (as a self-employed your income probably varies from year to year and I'm sure there will be years when you need additional deductions), or when you want to make post-tax contributions into Roth (or convert some of your pre-tax moneys into Roth), or some years you may decide that you will not be making any contributions.

Offer them a substantial non-refundable option fee to show I’m serious, deductible from purchase price, then use the option period to either find a cash buyer to flip it to or find suitable financing for myself to hold it.
