Our clients use self-directed IRAs to control their funds and assets, based on their own knowledge of different alternative investments, and enjoy the freedom to make these investments within their own comfort zones
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 29, 2015
As an experienced and successful self-directed IRA administrator, Advanta IRA neither sells investments nor provides investment advice. However, the firm does offer educational curriculum at no cost for investors who want to learn about self-directed IRAs and how to use them to build wealth towards retirement.
Self-directed retirement account owners have total control in choosing their own assets to build retirement income on a tax-free or tax-deferred basis. Self-direction opens the door to many alternative investment possibilities, such as precious metals, private lending options, crowdfunding, real estate, and more. Plan owners have the freedom to acquire assets they are familiar with in an effort to increase the potential returns on their investments.
Alternative investments are most often held directly in the name of the IRA. However, IRAs can also hold a private placement—such as an LLC or trust—which, in turn, invests in the desired assets. Real estate is the most popular asset held in self-directed retirement plans. Using LLCs and trusts to invest in real estate is simply another investment strategy that may work well for someone who fully understands how they function in an IRA.
“Our clients use self-directed IRAs to control their funds and assets, based on their own knowledge of different alternative investments, and enjoy the freedom to make these investments within their own comfort zones,” says Jack Callahan, managing partner of Advanta IRA Services in Florida and of Advanta IRA Administration in Georgia.
These types of transactions are not restricted to sophisticated investors, but the details involved can certainly more complicated than the average acquisition of real estate in an IRA. Advanta IRA is holding this webinar to show individuals and investors of all levels how to use their self-directed IRAs in this manner.
The webinar also qualifies for credit towards the designation of self-directed IRA specialist through Advanta IRA University (Advanta U).
