@Mike Loy, As a realtor you qualify for a Solo 401k, which has many advantages over self-directed IRA, here are few:Contribute 10X more than into an IRA (up to $61,000 per year per participant)Access up to $50,000 from your retirement account tax-free and penalties-free at any time prior to retirement via participant loan featureExempt from UDFI tax on leveraged real estateInvest tax-free using Roth 401k sub-accountCheckbook control without use of an LLC Custodian is not required = no custodian, transaction or asset based feesYou can read it in more details here:https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/2810/21298-sol...The bottom line is that if you qualify for Solo 401k - it would be way better than an IRA.

I read the blogs, I read the topics, and the Qs/As.
