Why Real Estate?
Through a self-directed IRA/401k you can purchase investment property, condos, multi-family units, and land just to name a few. Real estate, over any other investment, has the potential of increased safety of principle (tangible asset), income (rent) and growth (appreciation) all wrapped into one investment. For the income investor, a self-directed IRA/401k also allows you to loan money in the form of a mortgage (secured by real property) at interest rates far superior to those of traditional investments.
Why Real Estate In An IRA/401k?
Real estate investments offer retirement savers:
- An alternative to traditional investments that are often difficult to understand, monitor, and value.
- A means for growth and income through a tangible, less volatile investment vehicle.
- Tax free or tax deferred* growth and income without complicated 1031 exchanges or other tax strategies.
*Depending on the status of your individual plan
