Did you know your IRA can purchase real estate? That’s right, since 1975 IRAs and 401k plans have been afforded the ability to purchase real estate, which has helped many investors create large nest eggs by investing in what they know and understand.

By simply transferring your IRA from the bank or brokerage firm you are currently using to a self-directed IRA administrator, you gain the ability to make your own investment decisions, without being limited to the stock market. With all of the uncertainty in the stock market, now more than ever is the time to learn how to take control of your retirement plan and invest in Self-directed IRAs offer substantial tax advantages that have made many millionaire investors.

In addition, because the profit from the sale is deposited back into the IRA with no tax on gain or growth, the investor enjoys the power of compound interest to invest the next real estate deal.
Although IRS 1031 exchanges can be used to fund partial IRA investments in real estate, self-directed
IRAs do not have the same limitations and holding periods, thus are much more flexible. Finally, if you’re like many investors who are tired of poor-performing investments in stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, self-directed IRAs offer true portfolio diversification; i.e., in real estate, to help build wealth via tax-deferred or tax-free income-generating assets!
