This might be an ideal way for you to capitalize on all the real estate knowledge you've gained, and I'd expect you'd earn mid teens ROI over time with this.I also agree that you need to track your actual after-tax cash flows over time, plugging in a terminal cash flow of what you'd realize upon selling at the present time, and calculate your IRR on an inception-to-date basis.

Seek a tax atty or small business CPA for professional advice.Investors all over the country are buying RE with their Solo 401k and get cash on cash returns in the high teens.

Did I mention that we are in the cold Tundra of North Dakota where todays high is in the teens, if we're lucky?

Love the TK theatrics :)Those $30,000 PIGS sure are sexy-looking (from afar, that is).

I'm getting stuff at 9-10 caps and have cash on cash returns in the mid teens.
