Typically, most IRA providers only allow you to invest in approved stocks, bonds, mutual funds and CDs. A self-directed IRA with Entrust allows these traditional types of investments in addition to any type of real Estate. This is our most popular investment strategy - and for good reason! Self-directed IRAs are the only retirement arrangements that allow individual investors the freedom to pursue alternative investments, such as real estate. Investing in real estate with a self-directed IRA (also known as a Real Estate IRA) offers many benefits to those who are looking for creative ways to save for the future.
