A Self Directed IRA is an IRA account that you directly control and direct into investments of your choosing. Most self directed IRA custodians greatly limit your investment options. This is because the custodians either earn fees from your investments or they are too conservative or not prepared to handle non-traditional investments.
Accuplan Benefits Services provides a more truly self directed IRA account in that we do not place limits or constraints on your investment choices. Most of our clients are investing in precious metals such as gold backed IRAs and silver IRAs, real estate, private placements, oil & gas projects, condos, hard money lending, or their own LLC with checkbook control. Another investment option is the self directed 401k.
How Does a Self Directed IRA Work?
Option 1: Minimum Control and Convenience – The Self Directed IRA Account
With this option you open up a self directed IRA account and then select an investment and direct us to purchase that investment. Generally speaking, the investment(s) chosen are non-traditional in nature (buying into a small business, hard money loan to unrelated party, etc.). This structure places you into the investment, but you will be required to work through us as the custodian for each transaction. In some cases this works best if the investment activity and control required is minimal.Source Accuplan
