Then, and only then, should you consider establishing a plan and finding a service provider that can serve your needs.A self-directed IRA or Solo 401(k) is not a means for YOU to invest in real estate and have access to tax-sheltered capital for the purpose.Rather, these vehicles are a means for you to deploy your tax-sheltered retirement savings into investments that are more diversified in nature and perhaps align with expertise you may have in a specific asset class. 

Anyone have a recommendation for a CA tax advisor?
