Setting Up a Self-Directed IRA (SDIRA)
- Open an account with a self-directed IRA custodian. (I have a few that I can connect you with to eliminate you having to look on your own.)
- Contact your current IRA custodian and complete a funds transfer form. In this form, you specify the amount to be transferred as well as the account information of your new custodian. This process could take up to a month, depending on how quickly you complete the paperwork. Also, when speaking with your current custodian, make it clear that you're rolling it over into a self-directed IRA (SDIRA).
- Once your funds are in your new self-directed IRA account, you complete an investment directive form that informs your new IRA custodian about the investment you would like to make and instructs them on if they should disburse the funds via Wire or Check and, in some cases an ACH transfer. The investment will be titled in your IRA's name and not your own.
- When you liquidate the investment you made with your IRA, the funds are sent from the title company handling the sale or refinance directly back to the IRA custodian. You never get to touch any of the funds for tax purposes, meaning they come from the IRA and go back to the IRA.
