Has anyone used Self- directed IRA to purchase real estate? Broad Financial said they can help with this? Has anyone been with them? How's your experience

I haven't worked with that custodian, but I have had an SDIRA for a number of years. After doing several real estate investments with my SDIRA, I would recommend you dig deeply into what is required to remain in compliance before you do it. 

That includes but is not limited to, UBIT/UDFI/UBTI, disqualified persons, and what you are and are not allowed to do regarding the actual deals. There are a lot of aspects to using an SDIRA and remaining in compliance, which are not discussed frequently.

My SDIRA is currently invested in a property and once that sells I will be closing out my SDIRA. My specific frustration has been with UBIT. I understood the other items well before opening my SDIRA, but did not realize how much of a hassle UBIT would turn out to be.
