Also be aware of Unrelated Business Income Tax (or UBIT) on leveraged real estate inside of an IRA.Or better yet, since you are self-employed - go with a truly self-directed Solo 401k plan, which would be a much better option and will help you avoid the UBIT on this investment.

@Bruce Woodruff hi, the business in not RE.

I net about 3.5-5k a month(depending on airbnb) after all expenses including my primary residence and utilities there.I have built up a good amount of equity in the houses due to the renos I've done mostly myself and also from buying low during covid.

This stands true for any/every investment segment in existence; stocks, ETF's, business ventures.
