Is it "IRS legal" to buy a distressed property with a self directed IRA-LLC, hire a contractor to do all of the rehab., hire an atty., a realtor and other third party services to process the documents, and put every penny of profit back into the IRA the money came from without disqualifying my IRA?

IMHO, it doesn't.See some of the older threads debating this topic:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/941623-real-estate-professional-status-vs-real-estate-as-a-businesshttps://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/784349-any-high-performing-realtors-taxed-as-s-corpshttps://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51-tax-legal-issues-contracts-self-directed-ira/topics/713607-s-corp-for-real-estate-agent

Hi, On self directed Iras I understand it is more about who you can invest with vs what you can invest in,And my IRA can not self deal with myself or most of my immediate family members.

I have a lot of capital tied up in properties, has anyone used life insurance policies and self directed IRA's to grow their portfolio quicker?

Let’s say the name of my LLC is ABC IRA, LLC.More specifically, what entity type do I use?   

Good evening, Hypothetically speaking, If there was a college student (Mechanical Engineering Major) who had about $35k in his savings, no debt, one semester of school left, and was looking to invest in something beyond the typical stocks portfolio, and retirement accounts (401k, roth ira)...

We have used IRA money and 401K money from private investors on several occasions.

They have set up two different LLCs for my partner tonight involved are self-directed IRA and are Solo 401ks.

Hi -- I'm looking for a tax attorney or CPA with experience and expertise in self-directed IRAs. 

@Denise Darval-Chang why not move your Roth into a self-directed IRA.
