Self-Directed IRA Investing

Self-Directed Retirement Accounts

IRA & Solo 401k for Real Estate Investing

Investors can free themselves from just traditional retirement account investments (stock, bonds, etc.) and invest in real estate directly, provide secured real estate loans, invest in a small business and more.  

Self-Directed IRA Real Estate Investing

Guiding Real Estate Investors

Realty Yield’s role is to function as the “quarterback”, so to speak, in guiding investors through the steps and process necessary to begin utilizing funds currently deposited with traditional custodians (most don’t allow direct real estate investment).

Our Self-Directed IRA Process

Step 1

Start a Discussion

Discuss with Realty Yield what to expect from a variety of real estate investment options.

  • What types of properties are available, pros and cons of each property type?
  • What are the best options based on the amount of capital available to invest?
  • What does the buying process entail in investing in income-producing real estate?
  • How is a self-directed retirement account set-up and who are the custodians that offer these accounts?
Step 2

Set up Accounts

If continued interest, proceed to set-up the appropriate type of self-directed retirement account (IRA or Solo 401k).

We will refer you to IRA Advantage, a national leader in self-directed retirement planning headquartered in Portland, Oregon. David Moore, Tom Moore and their team will set-up the appropriate retirement account to properly prepare you for investments in real estate or other alternative non-traditional investments.

Step 3

Purchase Real Estate

Once the proper retirement account is set-up, Realty Yield will guide you through the entire real estate purchase process. Realty Yield is an expert Buyer’s Agent in all types of income-producing real estate. We will also arrange the required type of financing that is in compliance with the laws and regulations of utilizing debt within self-directed retirement accounts.

Additionally, since Realty Yield is a one-stop, full-service real estate service provider, we can also assist IRA/Solo 401K real estate investors with post transaction landlord support services to optimize the performance of their real estate investment-s between the buy and sell dates.

Mike has been what I was looking for in a commercial realtor. He has the unique ability to apply financial numbers to a project and not let the emotions of a property cloud the analysis. Working with Mike has always been about good communication and he does a great job. When you do finally find a property worth pursuing he is not pressuring you to make the offer and get the commission. It’s more about the long-term relationship. He reassured me that if he does a good job on this deal I will probably be back for more and sure enough I am in the hunt again.

We were so pleased with Mike’s handling of the sale, purchase and financing of our real estate that we referenced Mike as a contact for our children and our attorney if we should die and the children were to be left with the apartments. We knew that Mike would be honorable and not take advantage of them in settling our real estate holdings.

Cory Carlson was instrumental in the acquisition of our fourplex. His analysis skills, professionalism and productive communication while searching for our investment provided my wife and I confidence through the entire process. His connection with local lenders and understanding of the principles of finance prove Cory really is your one-stop investment broker and advisor.
