If you are self-employed with no full-time employees you may wish to consider opening a Solo 401k instead of a self-directed IRA as it has several advantages over an IRA LLC such as much higher contribution limits, direct checkbook control (i.e. no need to have the account at a speciality trust company), ability to take a 401k loan, exclusion from unrelated debt finance income tax with respect to investment in real estate acquired with non-recourse financing, etc.Can I contribute to both a Solo 401k and SDIRA?

Hi BiggerPockets community,excited to connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about real estate investing.
