American IRA Discusses Can a Self-Directed IRA Help the Environment?
ASHEVILLE, N.C. (PRWEB) October 17, 2018 -- Usually, investors with a Self-Directed IRA are looking to “go green” by building plenty of funds in their retirement portfolio. But there may be another way for them to “go green” by using a Self-Directed IRA, according to a recent post at http://www.AmericanIRA.com.
According to a recent study in the Harvard Business Review, environmentally-conscious businesses find themselves ahead of other businesses when it comes to both new environmental regulations and pressure from the public. The post at American IRA highlights the fact that some investors have the opportunity to do the same with a Self-Directed IRA, including using raw land for solar panels, wind turbines, and other energy-efficient opportunities that might be better for the environment.
Both residential and commercial real estate properties can be eligible for use in a Self-Directed IRA, the post notes, which can be beneficial for those who want to pair their environmentalism with retirement funds.
“A retirement investor does not have to be solely about building wealth,” said Jim Hitt, CEO of American IRA. “At least, not personal wealth. A retirement investor can also use their retirement funds to improve the world around them. Investing in green technology, quality real estate, and being committed to make a difference are all possibilities when someone holds a Self-Directed IRA.”
The post also notes that the tax protections, deferrals, and savings with a Self-Directed IRA can potentially maximize the funds available for high-quality “Green” investments. The post detailed more than a few different investment types and noted that the freedom of a Self-Directed IRA tends to allow more diversification and flexibility for investors who want to invest in more than simple stocks and bonds.
“A Self-Directed IRA is freedom,” said Jim Hitt. “That means freedom to live life on your terms. And if you make environmentalism a priority, a Self-Directed IRA is one vehicle through which you might achieve a better world for those around you. It does not have to be all dollars and cents—but a Self-Directed IRA can help in that department as well.”
