I took $1 million in my 401k in 2016/17 and turned it into 7 B+ single family LTR and 1 duplex. We have grossed over $1 million in rent since then and the 8 properties have appreciated tremendously. We do have debt and everyone saying it shouldn’t be done hasn’t done it, or hasn’t done it right anyways. You don’t pay capital gains in a SDIRA and in a high appreciation area it can be a very lucrative business.
