Investing with an IRA, 145k, options?

[Scott Smith]

I've done investing in the past, had single family, multi family, but never done it in an IRA where the whole purpose to grow the pot for retirement. I can't benefit from this personally at all right now, so I have 20 years to grow this section of my retirement account. With 145K, what would are some ideas? I'm an hour south of Portland, OR. The market is strong, maybe a little bit heated up, but I don't think it's too out of whack here. Thanks for any ideas.
