Looking for advice on Self directed IRAs to purchase property.
I'm over 59 1/2, I want to buy a home with Traditional IRA funds since I'm elibible not to take the 10% penalty but would take such a tax hit now since I'm still working. I know I can't live in this house if I do self-directed Ira but someday I would like to live there. Can I someday have the LLC sell the property to me? Basically my question is if I buy using self directed Ira can I ever since there?

If you use your SDIRA to buy the house you won’t pay any tax now unless you convert to a Roth and then buy the house.
Secondly it is prohibited by the IRS to buy a house using your Ira that you intend to occupy later.
You should discuss your goals with a professional well versed in SDIRAs. There is some education required that will help you make the correct choices.
