Advanta IRA Offers CPE Course Webinar: Real Estate in IRA—The Potentials and Pitfalls of Alternative Investments
Tampa, Florida (PRWEB) February 04, 2016 -- There is a widespread misconception that permissible IRA assets are limited to stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and CDs. This course provides tax professionals with the knowledge and skills to inform clients about self-directed IRAs and the possibilities of using real estates as alternative investments in retirement accounts. Attendees earn two hours of CPE credit at no cost to them.
“As a truly self-directed plan administrator, Advanta IRA does not impose investing restrictions beyond the IRS limitations which allow investors to capitalize on a much broader range of assets, including but not limited to real estate, mortgage loans, tax liens and private placements,” says Jack Callahan, managing partner of Advanta IRA. “Understanding how alternative investments work in retirement plans offers tax professionals the opportunity to better serve existing and potential clients.”
This webinar covers the following topics:
• types of retirement plans that can be self-directed
• assets permitted within a self-directed plan
• prohibited transactions and self-dealing
• partnering funds to acquire investments
• financing an IRA investment with a mortgage loan and unrelated business income tax (UBIT) issues
During the class, IRS Section 4975 is also covered extensively along with the rules regarding contributions and distributions for various types of retirement plans.
There is no cost to attend this course. To register and receive login instructions, please email Larissa Greene at lgreene(at)advantaIRAgroup(dot)com by 5:00 pm on February 15.
