Disbursement from SDIRA

[Shawn York]

Hi-

We have an inherited SDIRA which owns a property. (we converted it to a SDIRA upon death and the SDIRA purchased the property) Since it's inherited, we are required to take RMD's. We want to take a 20% ownership this year instead of taking cash as the disbursement. (we took a cash disbursement last year - only about $3500) The goal is to take percentage distributions of the property each year over the next 3-4 yrs in order to have full (private) ownership at the end.
I'm running in to a *boatload* of conflicting information on how to do this. We've already gotten the appraisal, already filed the necessary paperwork with the custodian (less than helpful since it's a "checkbook control" account)
Our problem is finding the right way to do the title paperwork. We've contacted a title company and they say we need a ton more paperwork from the custodian - custodian insists that they've given us all the necessary paperwork already. Title company also says they have to follow their own process (which I get) that include the title search and title insurance - but we already know that's 100% solid because we just did that less than 2 years ago when the SDIRA purchased the property. So title company suggested that maybe a real estate attorney could do some simple paperwork for the the deed showing the SDIRA is "selling" 20% and the new deed would read "xyz-LLC" 80% owner and "XYZ" (private person) 20% owner.
Any ideas/previous experience/guidance/suggestions? Property is in Indiana if anyone is going to recommend an actual contact.
Thanks for reading.

Bottom line is you need an experienced tax attorney or CPA to guide you through this. If you wish to distribute 20% of the property then you would have to change the title form the LLC to the IRA first, then to yourself. Because IRA does not own the property - the LLC is. The other option would be transferring % of the LLC to yourself.
