6. Self-Dealing – Rules of the Road The IRA owner may not loan money for an investment held by the IRA. Instead, a 3rd party must service the loan. The IRA owner may not receive a current benefit from any investment in the IRA. The IRA is a trust. Assets in the IRA must be vested in the name of the custodian or their nominee for the benefit of the IRA. –American Estate &Trust, FBO Lamarr Baxter IRA #12345

7. Benefits to Working with Other People’s IRAs Easier to buy mortgages or make a private loan using IRA funds than to purchase real property. The perception is that there is less to worry about with paper than a hard asset that needs maintenance. You can set up fractional interests to achieve lending or acquisition requirements. Work with multiple investors–each receives a fractional share of the underlining security for the note.

8. The IRA and the Investment With a self-directed IRA, the IRA owner selects the investment and is the ultimate decision maker. The IRA owner must perform his or her own due diligence. No requirement to record a document or get title insurance for a property. The IRA can state what it needs to feel protected. What would you do? The IRA can make both secured and unsecured loans.

9. Comfort Level for the IRA Investor Do not assume that because there are people you know, they feel comfortable doing business with you. Expect and be prepared for: Know the usury rules in the state in which the note is created. Know the lending laws in the state in which the loan is granted (securities laws). Structure a security interest that is marketable in case the IRA needs to sell its interest to raise cash.

10. IRA Lending Borrower & Lender - Keep the LTV at a reasonable rate. Borrower - Provide background on yourself, the investment, and your history in the business. Have a plan to explain how much money you need, for what purpose, when the money is needed, and how you plan on paying the IRA back. Borrower - A personal guarantee helps make someone feel better about you if they don’t know you. IRA owners are especially concerned about having an exit strategy and protecting their IRA.

11. Borrowing as an LLC An LLC structure can be detrimental to an IRA: –Might not allow a change in ownership. For an IRA to be cashed out, the LLC might have to be dissolved. –Can violate Blue Sky laws –Undivided interests. Makes your job communicating with an advanced IRA investor more difficult because an LLC make the deal not liquid.

Lisa directs Accuplan to send the money on behalf of Lisa’s IRA. The Note is made payable to American Estate & Trust FBO Lisa’s IRA. Security (deed) is endorsed over: Assignment Payments are made to Lisa’s IRA based on terms of the note. If Pete defaults, Lisa’s IRA forecloses and takes the Kansas property.

15. Due Diligence Check out the condition of property and neighborhood Screen borrower (verify credit, income source, assets and references) If loaning to “flippers” verify past performance on previous properties ( i.e. timelines and profits) Have title company perform a COMPLETE title search for liens and/or clouds on title
