@Cory Adams one thing to consider is becoming a Hard Money Lender.Holding properties or flipping properties in a SD401k can definitely be done but there are a lot of headaches dealing with paying contractors, etc with funds from the SD401k where you may have significant delays or fees for each check you cut - depends on the servicer.If you build a good network of investors in your area that are looking for funds, you can get 10-14% returns depending on the laws for your area with minimal risk depending on what LTV you loan at.
