What Is a Checkbook IRA? Invest with the Power of Checkbook Control

Are you looking to manage your alternative investments in real-time? With Broad Financial’s Self-Directed Checkbook IRA, you can gain control of your investing! Our Checkbook IRA gives you the power of Checkbook Control.

You May Be Wondering, What Is Checkbook Control?

Checkbook Control gives you the freedom to invest directly in alternative assets without the need for a custodian for everyday transactions. When you open a Checkbook IRA, you’ll first set up a Self-Directed IRA with our sister company, Madison Trust.

Once the Self-Directed IRA is established, transfer or rollover funds from a previous retirement account or complete an initial contribution. Madison Trust will be there to guide you through the account setup process and maintain your IRA.

Then, Broad Financial will supercharge your Self-Directed IRA by setting up an IRS-compliant Trust or LLC. Once the LLC is established, you’ll set up a dedicated checking account at the bank of your choice in the name of the LLC.

Next, Madison Trust will transfer the funds from your Self-Directed IRA, to your LLC checking account.

Finally, you’ll have the ability to invest in what you want, when you want by writing a check or sending a wire!

Our Checkbook IRA gives you the 3 C’s:

1. Control

You’re in direct control of all your investment decisions.

2. Cost

You save money by avoiding transaction fees. That’s more money in your pocket to invest!

3. Choice

You have the freedom to invest in different types of assets.
