Seizing Investment Opportunities

When an opportunity presents itself, you want to be ready to take advantage. But what happens when an investment opportunity arises and your assets are tied up?

The Importance of Flexibility in Investments

It is crucial to work with a firm that can access multiple solutions and investment vehicles. Utilizing a self-directed IRA to access retirement funds for real estate or other opportunities is not uncommon in our practice.

Steve’s Real Estate Investment Opportunity

As a real estate developer, Steve knows when a good opportunity arises. When a chance came to purchase a piece of undeveloped land with his son as a personal project and long-term family investment, he didn’t want to miss it.

Challenges with Traditional Financing

Being undeveloped, banks don’t traditionally lend on projects like this. To purchase the property, Steve would have to pay cash for the full amount. The issue wasn’t money—Steve’s wealth was tied up in retirement accounts at the time.

Using a Self - Directed IRA for Investment

By setting up a self-directed IRA, we were able to use Steve’s retirement assets to fund the real estate investment without recognizing any tax consequences from a distribution.
