How To Set Up a Self Directed IRA with Checkbook Control?

Open an IRA Account

First, you’ll open a Self Directed IRA account with our in-house custodian, Madison Trust Company. 

Fund Your Account

Transfer or Rollover your funds from a previous retirement account, such as an IRA or 401(k). The account can also be funded with an initial Contribution.

Establish an IRA LLC or an IRA Trust

Broad Financial will create a specialized, IRS-compliant LLC or Trust for your IRA and complete all paperwork. You will create a designated checking account at the bank of your choice and move funds into this new account.  

Invest in Alternatives

Once your account is funded, you can start investing immediately! With the power of checkbook control, you can simply write a check or send a wire from your checking account to invest.

Self Directed IRA with Checkbook Control - FAQs

What assets can you invest in with a Self Directed IRA?

A Self Directed IRA is like any other retirement account, except you can invest in alternative assets beyond standard stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. Some popular investments include real estate, private equity, crowdfunding, startups, promissory notes, and more.

Can I open a Self Directed IRA as a Roth IRA?

Yes! If you prefer to pay your taxes upfront and receive tax-free profits, a Self Directed Roth IRA is the choice for you. With a Self Directed Roth IRA there is no need to make required minimum distributions (RMDs), allowing you to pass down your tax-free funds to your heirs. 

What is a Self Directed IRA Custodian? 

The IRS requires all retirement accounts to be held by a custodian or a trust to maintain its tax-deferred or tax-free status. Custodians are financial institutions that hold custody of the retirement account’s investments for safekeeping and adhere to all IRS regulations that govern Self Directed IRAs. The custodian will also make sure wiring instructions and investment documents are filled out correctly, listing the Self Directed IRA as the investor.
