Buying Property with an IRA

Self Directed IRA

A Self Directed IRA allows you the freedom to invest in almost any form of real estate. From owning the home to collecting rental income passively, the benefits to utilizing a Self Directed IRA for your real estate investments is only limited to what you really want to do with your money. Another advantage is that you don’t have to file capital gains when the property is owned by the Self Directed IRA. You can also use your Self Directed IRA to invest in land, condos, duplexes, etc. Real estate provides steady income and potential appreciation values.

Rental Properties

Rental Investments can produce monthly cash flow from your Self Directed IRA when you invest in single family homes. Using your IRA to purchase a rental property can bring in cash flow to your IRA month after month from the rental income. Collecting the money passively will help to grow your wealth over time.

House Flipping

You can utilize your IRA as an investment source to start or grow your real estate investment portfolio with house flipping. Your IRA can purchase the asset and quickly resell it for profit. Let the money purchase the revenue-generating asset for you. Purchasing the asset this way will allow you to turn the property appreciation into great value and return on your investment. If you are ready to get into house flipping, you’re in the right place, let us help you.

AirBnB

Investing in AirBnB Property has become a gold mine for some investors. AirBnB is an online marketplace providing alternative accommodations for travelers who prefer to stray away from large hotel chains or small boutique hotels.

Things to Know Before You Invest in Rental Property, House Flipping, or AirBnB properties

The property can not be used for any personal reasons at all.

All expenses associated with the investment must be paid using the funds in your IRA account. All revenue must go back to the IRA account. All property expenses, including taxes, insurance, and repairs must be paid from funds in your Self Directed IRA.

A handyman, contractor or property management company must be the persons to perform physical work on the property. You cannot perform any physical work.

The investment is made by the IRA – not you. Remember to title the investment correctly.

Consider the allocation of your commitment, cost, and time.

How to Use Your Self Directed IRA as the Bank

Did you know that you can also have your Self Directed IRA be a source for making loans? Borrowers pay high interest rates on loans from banking institutions, so why not utilize your invested capital to earn the same rates of return that banks do with your IRA. As long as you are not lending to disqualified persons, making the loan from your IRA is easy, and you can enjoy tax-free growth. Now thats a win win position to be in for growing your wealth. Just like the banks do, you can set the terms and interest rates and your IRA will receive the profits.

Rental Properties

As you can earn a great deal of interest by lending money, the income tax bill can be quite large. However, if you invest using IRA funds, all income is tax deferred till you choose to take a distribution. This allows more money to stay in the account and increases the effect of compounding.

House Flipping

Let your IRA be the bank and earn interest. Remember, banks get rich by charging interest and your IRA can do the same.

AirBnB

Investors are using their Self Directed IRAs to make loans to those renovating properties. Your IRA can make a loan to rehabbers to fund the purchase and renovation on rentals or fix and flip properties.

Bridge Loans

This short-term loan allows your IRA to be the bank. Many people are seeking funds for a short period to complete a purchase. And they will pay your IRA the interest for it. Your Self Directed IRA funds can help achieve their dreams.
