Informative but not Objective, 2007-03-21
Written by the top officer of Entrust, whose business is to manage self directed IRAs, this book is not to be taken as an objective analysis of the benefits and drawbacks of buying real estate within a self directed IRA. Although never actually lying (I'm sure Entrust's attorneys made sure of that), it avoids the topic of fees and lack of control, that are involved in maintaining any real estate investment within an IRA. It also doesn't mention any of the costs of setting up an LLC with one or more members. Setting up an LLC is a likely scenario and was, in fact, recommended to me, by Entrust. Buying real estate within an IRA is very different than doing the same investment outside of an IRA. Given the fees involved with this type of investment, what would be the minimum investment recommended to absorb these fees/costs and still realize an acceptable return? No answers here. Examples of returns are unrealistic in today's more normal market conditions. The author does make some good points, and the concept is really great. But buyer beware. I was so disappointed to come to the conclusion that buying a $350K investment property, using the required non-recourse loan with a higher rate, and setting up an LLC with 2 members (the bank and my IRA) was too complicated and restrictive. This book is an excellent starting point, but the drawbacks either aren't mentioned, nor fully addressed. Basically, the author is selling. Remember what he does for a living. Get your highlighter out and read carefully!
