Brad Herb Syndication using SDIRA $
19 November 2024 | 11 replies
@Brad Herb Investing in a syndication via a Self-Directed IRA (SDIRA) offers tax advantages but comes with fees and limitations:Advantages:Tax Benefits: Gains grow tax-deferred (Traditional SDIRA) or tax-free (Roth SDIRA).Avoid Penalties: Keeps funds in the IRA, avoiding early withdrawal penalties.Diversification: Adds real estate syndications to your retirement portfolio.Disadvantages:Fees: Setup, custodian, and administrative fees can reduce returns.UBIT: If the syndication uses debt, income may be subject to Unrelated Business Income Tax (UBIT).Complexity: Strict rules; all income/expenses must flow through the SDIRA.Illiquidity: Syndications are long-term, locking up funds.Use an SDIRA if the investment is significant and the UBIT impact is minimal, especially with a Roth SDIRA for tax-free growth.Remember that RE, outside of retirement accounts, provides the biggest tax benefits.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.
