Leverage Funds in Your Self-Directed IRA or Solo 401K to Buy Commercial Real Estate

Traditionally owners of self-directed IRAs or Solo 401ks have invested in real estate using just the funds in their accounts (meaning, without any financing); and the type of real estate purchased by these investors has primarily been residential (meaning a 1-4 unit property:  a single-family residence, a duplex, a triplex, or a quad plex).  An alternative that should be given thoughtful consideration is investing in commercial real estate (meaning an office, warehouse, or retail building which can each be single tenant or multi-tenant, or an apartment building), and this can be done using financing, which should also be given thoughtful consideration.
