Yes, that many people are really buying I bonds before the rate goes down. It was never a robust website to begin with and can’t handle the volume. Only a couple days left. Just keep trying.

$150K plane that costs $30K/yr to operate (it’s always the higher number) plus both sides of a duplex, plus you want to maybe get another duplex too?

Seems like a big ask at $100K/yr. Just operating the place alone is 30% of your pretax income.
