Join Mat and Mark as they discuss Checkbook IRA/LLC's the structure that surrounds them and the documents needed to get it right the first time!About IRA LLC's/Checkbook IRAAn IRA/LLC is an investment structure whereby an IRA invests capital into a newly created limited liability company (“LLC”). The IRA owns the LLC units just like your IRA can own Coca-Cola corporation stock. This IRA/LLC structure has been popular amongst real estate investors and other investors who regularly invest in alternative assets with their retirement accounts. A common IRA/LLC structure is one where the IRA invests a designated amount of cash into the LLC in exchange for 100% of the membership units of the LLC. The LLC then in turn acquires the intended investment asset. For example, a rental property. An IRA/LLC can also be formed with numerous IRAs owning the LLC with the ownership allocated between the different IRAs based on the dollars invested.Learn how to take control of your retirement - https://directedira.com/Self-directed IRA Podcast - https://matsorensen.com/podcast/Shop my products - https://shop.matsorensen.com/ Blog & Articles - https://matsorensen.com/blog/ ----Connect with Mat online:- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/matsorensen/- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mat.sorensen.1- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matsorensen/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/matsorensen - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MatSorensen

Roth conversions remain popular as many fear that tax rates will only increase in the next few years, so why not convert now at lower tax rates and let the account grow and come out tax-free at retirement? Remember, if you have a traditional IRA or 401(k), then that money grows tax-deferred, but you pay tax on the money as it is drawn out at retirement. If you have traditional dollars where you obtained tax deductions for those contributions, you then have to pay tax on the amount you want to convert to Roth.----Schedule a Free 15-minute new account phone appointment with one of our experienced Senior Account Executives regarding a Real Estate IRA or a Self-Directed IRA.https://directedira.com/appointment----

Self Directed Investor Talk: Alternative Asset Investing through Self-Directed IRA's & Solo 401k's
https://SelfDirected.org/2 The Checkbook IRA LLC Provides the Highest Level of Control Available Over a Self-Directed IRA... and Substantially Increases the Risk of Prohibited Transactions. Checkbook IRA LLC provides two huge benefits: Ultimate control (and instant access to capital) for the self-directed IRA account holder, and potentially lower transaction fees. This strategy works by using the capital held by a fully self-directed IRA custodian to purchase 100% of the shares of an LLC, which is managed and controlled by the IRA owner. But the freedom to control the capital does not minimize the need for the account to avoid prohibited transactions. In fact, the Checkbook IRA LLC strategy increases the risk of committing a prohibited transaction in your IRA. After a rule change in 2014, your custodian notifies the IRS when you use this strategy, or invest in any type of "illiquid asset". Cost of committing a prohibited transaction in your IRA is very frequently 50% of the IRA balance or more, with a cost running to 100% not unusual.
