In real estate investing, it isn’t always about the deal. Well, it is, but at times it needs to be about other things as well. This month we tackle self-directed IRAs and we do it from a different approach. Many of our members already invest using their self-directed IRA, so, in Phoenix, we’re going to dedicate our workshop to actual deals investors are doing inside their IRA. The Main Meeting in both Tucson and Phoenix, will get more into the details of what you can do, how to do it, what to avoid, etc. Of course, the Market Update will be presented with all the latest information and the networking will be great. If you attend our Prescott meeting, John Burley is our special guest speaker. Don’t miss it!
Phoenix Workshop – Self-Directed IRA Case Studies
At AZREIA, we always believe you learn best from others. So, we are going to start the meeting demonstrating how other investors have used their IRA to invest. Three case studies are planned and then we will open it to the audience to see other creative ways AZREIA members are using their self-directed IRAs. This will be a terrific session for both investors who are already using an IRA to invest and for those just now considering it.
