If you go with a self-directed Solo 401k plan, you can supercharge its Roth component by investing in illiquid assets such as trust deeds and converting them to Roth at a deep discount.

Is a self directed IRA an option since it sounds like you have a large amount of funds in a 401k6.

When you can buy properties like this, you can get almost 100% of your money out of the property, convert the property into a long term rental loan, with a DSCR Loan (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) where we as the lender look at the property and if it cash flows, and that is expressed as a ratio, for instance if your Total Loan payment including Principal, Interest, Taxes and Insurance was $1000/mo, then you would need a rent of $1200/mo and you would have a 1.2 DSCR Ratio.Here is an example of a cheap duplex https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/732-Broad-St-Menasha-WI-5...

The answer sort of varies on a few factors like are you self-managing, have you had a proper conversation with them over the phone, etc... 

Quote from @Tom Server: It really doesn't matter what her opinion is or how she expresses it.

I use American Express business blueprint; they like to work with REI and provide funds ASAP

We are cash flow break-even, but we love the steady equity growth that requires nearly zero bandwidth to self-manage.

It was a bit of a nightmare negotiating as I am considered self-employed and of course during 2020 the entertainment industry was completely shut down.

Something that I can do with self directed funds?

I agree with Michael.You can still self manage but you need to hire out more tasks.
