Self-directed IRA companies

Posted by 7flat on 1/22/23 at 7:43 am
Looking for advice from anyone who has a self directed IRA. I’m interested in opening one for investing outside the market, mainly real estate.

How are you supposed to access all the tracts off the road if they bust it up like that? I’d say there’s a high likelihood they end up driving the prices up on the individual tracts so the whole thing is not affordable. Seems like a good way to end up with a bunch of new neighbors. But you never kn...
