What is a Self-Directed IRA?

About this episode

What is a self-directed IRA, and how does it actually work?

In this episode of the Directed IRA Podcast, Mat Sorensen and Mark J. Kohler break down the most foundational concepts in self-directed investing. If you have ever felt limited by traditional retirement accounts or wondered if you can invest your IRA in assets outside of Wall Street, this episode is for you.

As part of our Self-Directing 101 series, this conversation is designed to simplify the concept, clear up common misconceptions, and help you understand how to take control of your retirement strategy.

In this episode, you will learn:
• What a self-directed IRA is and how it differs from a typical IRA
• The types of investments you can make, including real estate, crypto, and private deals
• How to use existing retirement funds to get started
• Why contribution limits do not limit your growth potential
• The key rules to understand before you begin

Self-directing is not about complexity. It is about expanding your options and investing in what you know best.
