A self-directed IRA (SDIRA) could be the answer to diversify your investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>What is a Self-Directed IRA?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A\u00a0<a aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theentrustgroup.com\/self-directed-iras\/what-is-a-self-directed-ira?utm_campaign=Education%20-%20Individual%20Investors&amp;utm_source=Coastal_Capital&amp;utm_medium=nl_02-21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Self-Directed IRA<\/a>\u00a0(SDIRA) is quite simply, an IRA. All IRAs abide by the same laws and possess the same capabilities. Unlike other IRAs held at banks, brokerage firms and other institutions, with a SDIRA, you\u2019re not limited to stocks, bonds, or mutual funds.  This means you can invest in virtually any asset including private funds, trustee notes and even crypto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>What are the benefits?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A Self-Directed IRA gives you the opportunity to build a more diversified and resilient portfolio. It allows you to take advantage of alternative investments such as real estate, precious metals, private equity, notes, and more. A custodian\/administrator is required to do the record keeping for the assets in your account, but nothing moves in or out of it without your direction. You decide how much, when, and most of all, what to invest in, giving you the freedom to invest in what you know best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Investing in Real Estate With a Self-Directed IRA<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Real Estate is a popular investment among SDIRA holders because it is a tangible asset that people know and trust. With a SDIRA, you can invest in a wide range of real estate assets: residential or commercial properties, developed or undeveloped land, condos, hotels, mortgage notes, and more. Depending on what type of account you choose, earnings can continue to be either tax-free or tax-deferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How does investing a SDIRA in real estate work? Imagine you purchased a single-family property through your SDIRA. If you chose to sell it, your profits would go directly to your IRA. Alternatively, were you to rent out that same house, your income would go back into your IRA and any related expenses would be paid from your IRA. For more information about how to use your SDIRA to purchase a rental property, go <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theentrustgroup.com\/blog\/basics-of-self-directed-iras-and-purchasing-rental-property-with-retirement-funds?utm_campaign=Education%20-%20Individual%20Investors&amp;utm_source=Coastal_Capital&amp;utm_medium=nl_02-21\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The level of control and flexibility associated with a SDIRA does come with its own set of responsibilities. For example, investments made with your SDIRA are owned by your SDIRA, not by you personally, making self-dealing prohibited.

Then, establish how you\u2019ll fund it, and decide what your investment strategy will be.
