I know that any distributions from my IRA is a taxable event subject to income taxation, but I just want to make sure that transferring from an inherited IRA to a self-directed IRA does not generate unexpected tax implications (because I'm simply transferring between slightly different IRA accounts and custodians and not taking any distributions).  

If you have a $100,000 loan at 3.75% and that goes up to 5.25% but your able to get another 50-100k out the additional cost on your current loan is only $1500 per year which is a small price to pay to go create some other opportunity that over the life of that second investment can yield you $50,000-$150,000.My biz partner told me years back, "Don't step over quarters to pick up pennies", which to me most of the time translates to calculate the money you are not making by taking that next step vs the money you are trying to save.
