Investing in Real Estate with your IRA

If you’re looking for a way to invest in real estate that can offer tax-deferred or even tax-free growth, you may want to consider using your Individual Retirement Account (IRA). An IRA can be used to buy, hold, and sell investment property, providing a wide range of potential benefits for retirement planning.

There are a few things to keep in mind when using an IRA to invest in real estate. First, you’ll need to set up a self-directed IRA with a custodian that allows real estate investments. Second, you’ll need to be aware of the rules and regulations around investing in real estate with an IRA, including the prohibition on “self-dealing” and the requirements for maintaining the property as an investment.
