What To DO About A ROTH IRA When Investing In Real Estate
Hi Everyone,
I've been trying to figure out what I should do regarding a retirement account, more specifcally a Roth IRA. I plan on getting into real estate soon but I'm trying to jumble both real estate investing and a retirement account on the other hand.
Should I just treat my real estate invesments as my "Retirement" chunk to live off of in the future? Or should I have both, a Roth IRA and real estate?
I've been very confused and would like to know what your more experianced investors are doing for retirement and such. Some say it's a waste now to have a IRA and others don't...
Do you have a Roth IRA? If so, what company do you have the account through? Do you like the company?
Thank you,
Cody

You can buy real estate inside of your Roth IRA, in order to do so you must convert your IRA into self-directed.
