Using existing IRA or 401(k) funds, Guidant’s self-directed IRA LLC program gives investors the control to truly diversify their retirement accounts into investments such as;
- Real Estate
- Tax Liens
- Loans
- Private Placement
- & much more
With the growing popularity of self-directed IRAs, investors have the opportunity to generate higher and more secure returns than the stock market can offer. Since 2000, investor participation in real estate, property, foreclosures and other opportunities outside the stock market has nearly doubled and is projected to account for 20 percent of the investment market by 2015.
IRA LLC clients gain checkbook control of their retirement funds allowing them to invest when, where and how they choose. This truly self-directed IRA gives investors the ability to purchase time-sensitive investments that are nearly impossible using a traditional IRA custodian. Our clients are on an equal playing field with investors who have a wealth of liquid cash at hand.
The Advantages!
Guidant’s self-directed IRA LLC provides an investment platform where you can manage your retirement investments with the same flexibility and control you use when managing your non-retirement investments. Guidant's IRA LLC includes a self-directed account and a customized and conforming Limited Liability Company (LLC), which gives you:
MORE INVESTMENT OPTIONS Use your retirement funds to invest in real estate, tax liens, businesses, loans and more! Now you can truly diversify your investment portfolio, all inside the same account structure.
LIMITED CUSTODIAL FEES Guidant’s preferred custodial relationships offer its clients minimal annual fees. Regardless of the account size, our clients pay the same low custodial maintenance fee of around $130 per year. In addition, Guidant's structure all but eliminates transactional, asset-based and holding fees. This can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars per year.
CHECKBOOK CONTROL Participate in time-sensitive investments, including foreclosures and tax liens, without the time restrictions of the custodial paperwork process.
SUPPORT TO SUCCEED Guidant will ensure you receive the support you need to invest confidently and profitably. The self-directed IRA LLC program includes time with a specialized attorney and coaching from a self-directed account manager to ensure you steer clear of prohibited transactions and toward your retirement goals.
How it Works!
The self-directed IRA LLC is the most cost effective, time efficient and value rich product available to self-directed IRA investors. The greatest benefit of the IRA LLC is that it gives the IRA owner total control—there is no participation in the investments by a self-directed IRA custodian, meaning a custodian does not have to process paperwork, complete transactions, notarize documents or interact with your investments. Because the self-directed IRA LLC takes away much of the custodian's administrative participation, the IRA holder doesn't pay additional transactional, special asset-based or holding fees.
Who Can Benefit?
As a passive investment vehicle, the self-directed IRA LLC is ideal for investors who have more than $50,000 in their account or intend to make numerous smaller investments that would typically incur substantial transactional, holding and administrative fees with a typical custodian.
Investors intending to make time-sensitive investments such as foreclosures or tax liens are enabled to make such investments through the IRA LLC.
