Recommendation for Checkbook IRA?

[Long Lam]

Good morning everyone!  I have been on BiggerPockets for about a year but too nervous to post anything due to lack of knowledge in real estate.  Today, I am doing it.... 

I have a few 401k accounts from my previous employers and would like to move them into a Checkbook IRA. I did some research on BiggerPockets but most of the posts are old (3-5 yrs) so I am not sure if the information is still relevant.

My questions are: 

Does anyone has any recommendation on checkbook IRA? Accuplan, BroadFinancial, or any others?

Anyone has any success buy and hold real estate with a checkbook IRA?

Thank you for your help and time!

Long, congratulations on breaking the ice and making your first post!

Checkbook IRA can be very powerful tool when it comes to alternative investing (real estate, private lending, tax liens, syndication, private placements, hard money lending, etc). Many of my clients successfully investing, the story of one just came to mind, hopefully it will inspire you and help you make the next move:
