Clint, always great content. However, I am conflicted as you make mention in this video about SDIRA and you have other videos discouraging use and to use solo 401k. I have been leaning towards opening solo 401k, but eligibility has me twisted. If my business is real estate investing, then as I understand it, I would not qualify because rental income is considered passive income. Is that correct? Also, as part of my real estate business I could be doing part time general contractor work AND collecting rent. thus I would be paying myself (and my wife) a wage. Would I then qualify for a solo 401K? Thanks, Steve
YYes, you can. However, it’s crucial to use an LLC to hold the title to the land when owning real estate within a self-directed IRA. Many investors make the unfortunate mistake of overlooking the fact that their IRA can be held liable if someone is injured on the property.
Hi Clint. I’m a little confused. I found this video b I watched one you did 9 years ago saying that self directed iras we’re bad news. Did things change? Thanks so much
It does generate UDFI but remember you can use your depreciation to offset the income. The only way around UDFI is to invest through a solo 401k. If your money is in a ROTH then you are stuck but if its in a traditional then you can roll it into a solo and avoid the UDFI.
Great video. How are the cash flow, expenses, income, losses, depreciation, and taxes handled for the rental property in the LLC? Also, can you maintain a traditional IRA along with a SDIRA?
They all flow through to the SDIRA for tax purposes. Thus, if your IRA does not have any debt on the property then it is not relevant. Yes you can have both a traditional and SDIRA. You can have as many IRAs as you want you only limit is on the annual contribution which is in the aggregate.
if I do this and receive a tax form such as 1099-INT from the LLC’s bank account, or a 1099-MISC from my property manager, shall I just disregard these tax forms since they are generated against the EIN of the LLC, which is owned by the tax deferred IRA?

Glad it was helpful!
This is a great video! I have so many questions now.

Who is a good company to contact for the self-directed IRA's?
Can you buy land (with no house yet) that you would like to build an investment on, or just hold as an investment?
YYes, you can. However, it’s crucial to use an LLC to hold the title to the land when owning real estate within a self-directed IRA. Many investors make the unfortunate mistake of overlooking the fact that their IRA can be held liable if someone is injured on the property.

Sounds clearly like it’s bad news if you do not have the limited liability corporations, and if you set them up yourself without legal assistance
Let coach Clint Cook!!!!!!
Great information, Clint. Is there a strategy for avoiding UBIT in these structures? As I understand, leveraged property will generate UBIT.
It does generate UDFI but remember you can use your depreciation to offset the income. The only way around UDFI is to invest through a solo 401k. If your money is in a ROTH then you are stuck but if its in a traditional then you can roll it into a solo and avoid the UDFI.
…and how would we withdraw or dissolve the IRA at a later date?
You would transfer the property out of the IRA

Your IRA will need to file a tax return because it has UBTI. These will be included with your return
Can I buy property in another country with my self-directed IRA?
Yes
Great info as always. Thanks Clint
Question- how to get money from IRA to pay for LLC setup costs?
You instruct your IRA custodian to wire the funds to the company setting up your IRA LLC.
Are you talking paying cash for property or borrowing. Sounds like a bunch of legal fees will be incurred.
Either one works
