Solo 401k Plan setup | Solo 401k Plan Real Estate





QUESTION 1: How much profit I need from my business to allow setup the Solo 401K? Is there minimal limit?

ANSWER: Neither the internal revenue code nor IRS Publication 560 specifically list a set figure of earned income from self-employment for qualifying for a solo 401k. You will ultimately need to consult with your personal tax professional to determine if you are truly self-employed and that you will continue to be self-employed, as qualifying for a solo 401k is not just a one-shot deal. In other words, you will need to continue to be self-employed, whether part-time or full-time in order to continue to participate in a solo 401k.

QUESTION 2: Can I buy house use half solo 401k plan money and half cash from my own pocket?

ANSWER: If you are going to use the solo 401k owned real-estate property for your personal use the answer is no because you are a disqualified party and therefore are prohibited from living in the house because it would be partially owned by the solo 401k. What you are describing mirrors a tenants-in-common transaction. Please visit following links to learn more:



QUESTION 3: If answer question 2 is yes, can tenant pay rent to my bank account and I move the money to Solo401K account, or tenant need to split the rent to 50/50 to deposit to different account?

ANSWER: No the gains on a solo 401k assets including real estate may not be deposited into the solo 401k owner’s personal bank account and then re-deposited into the solo 401k bank account.
