What is a Self‑Directed Retirement Account?
A self-directed retirement account is a tax-advantaged IRA or Solo 401(k) that gives you the freedom and flexibility to invest in alternative assets.
Unlike traditional retirement accounts limited to stocks and bonds, self-directed accounts let you take control of your investments while staying compliant with IRS rules. Diversify your portfolio, reduce your tax burden, and invest in what you know best.

I've looked at all of the participants in this space and IRA Financial was the clear choice. They were the easiest to work with, answered all my questions and concerns prior to me taking the steps to open the account. The process is straight forward and there are no surprises. My investments in Real Estate have been largely successful. IRA Financial is professional, has great support, and put the customer in the driver's seat.
I believe that the sphere of influence, those we surround ourselves with and the firms we partner with is critical to our success. I’m honored to have found Adam Bergman and IRA Financial.

I have been a client of IRA Financial for several years and I really love them. I've worked with other companies, and they just were not as easy to work with. I appreciate being able to get somebody on the phone and getting help with taxes. Just everything has been so easy to work with. I have, and do, recommend them to anyone thinking about self-directed investing.
