One of the most common questions we receive from self-directed investors is: Do I need an IRA LLC?

The answer depends entirely on what you’re investing in and how you plan to invest. For some investors, an IRA LLC can provide speed, flexibility, and greater control over investment activity. For others, it may add unnecessary complexity and cost. In this special Directed IRA Podcast, Mat Sorensen and Ashley Burr (Senior Attorney at KKOS Lawyers) will discuss when an IRA/LLC makes sense, when it doesn’t, and the key legal and compliance considerations investors should understand before setting one up.

we’ll cover:

  • What an IRA LLC is and how checkbook control works
  • The types of investors and investments that commonly use IRA LLCs
  • Situations where a standard self-directed IRA may be the better option
  • Real estate, lending, private funds, and other common IRA LLC use cases
  • How IRA LLCs are formed and funded
  • Prohibited transaction risks and common compliance mistakes
  • Questions investors should ask before creating an IRA LLC

Whether you’re considering your first IRA LLC or trying to determine whether one fits your investment strategy, this session will provide the framework for making the decision.
