If you are able to roll over your employer 401k and IRA's into a solo401k and/or self-directed IRA, you can invest in real estate ventures with those accounts, but you cannot benefit or profit from those properties in the form of personal use or personal income.

From what I've read on numerous places, multifamily expenses range from 45-55% of gross income.

Chances are, however, that tenants will only agree to it if it benefits them (reduction in rent, extension of the lease term at the same rent, etc.).

You would benefit more from hiring your own agent as the commission is usually contracted to be paid by the seller.

I'm an SFR investor interested in buying NNN property in bad shape for 500k and to renovate it for 600k-1mil (to take advantage of the tax reform benefits).

All of the locations are sold with cool tax benefits. 

I have someone who may partner with me but where is the benefit for him if I would own the property?
