Let IRA Advantage Show You the Flexibility & Power of a Self-Directed IRA
Don’t trust your retirement to a generic “one size fits all” approach. Retirement can include real estate, precious metals, or you can even start or invest in a small business. Make sure your retirement is when you truly live your dream.

Choose True Flexibility
Free yourself from traditional retirement investments by choosing a self-directed IRA or an individual 401k plan from IRA Advantage. We’ll structure a plan that offers you the flexibility to choose the retirement investments that make sense for you. Insist on flexibility.

Choose Personal Service
Insist on getting the personal service your retirement deserves. We’ll sit down with you to find out where you are and where you want to go. In contrast, other firms offer their “one size fits all approach”. Choose to fund your retirement your way.

The IRS technically defines an IRA as a “trust created in the United States for the exclusive benefit of an individual or his beneficiaries”. So, an IRA, like other trusts, has a trustor, a trustee, a trust beneficiary and trust assets.
As each type of IRA has different requirements to meet IRS guidelines, you’ll want to seek professional advice when considering investment in an IRA. Read More »
After the LLC is created, the custodian funds a new bank account of which the LLC is the owner. The IRA beneficiary can be the manager of the LLC and the signer on the account. Just write a check or use a debit card to make the IRA’s next investment.
Among the many benefits of an IRA LLC (in addition to flexibility) are reduced transaction fees, liability protections, freedom from investment delays caused by the custodian, interest income, and the ability for the LLC to have multiple investors. Read More »
Sometimes known as a Rollover Business Startup, the process involves creating a new 401k and rolling over the assets of your existing retirement plan. Then the 401k invests in the new business C-Corporation; shares are owned by the 401k. You can operate the business yourself, and pay yourself a salary, all while growing your retirement investment.

Simply writing a personal check is the natural tendency for an IRA owner when an expense is incurred and there are no funds left in the IRA. This is a prohibited transaction, though in some “emergency” cases it may be allowed. IRA growth and the IRA owner’s ability to make contributions are the only truly legitimate sources for expenses when there are no reserves. Read More »
Bars and rounds are acceptable if they meet fineness requirements and come from a NYMEX or COMEX approved source. Some specifically excluded pieces are: the Dutch Guilder, Mexican Peso, Belgian & French Francs, South African Kruggerand, British Sovereign, and Swiss or German Marks. IRA Advantage strongly suggests you consult with your metals dealer or tax advisor before investing IRA funds in precious metals.
