American IRA will be hosting Kyle Moody for a webinar on using LLCs within a Self-Directed IRA. Kyle will explain when an LLC may make sense, when one may be required, and why most self-directed investments do not need an LLC structure.
The discussion explores single-member and multi-member LLCs, eligible participants, proper funding and vesting, movement of funds, and formation and dissolution. Attendees will also learn important rules and common mistakes to avoid when using an LLC as part of their Self-Directed IRA investment strategy.
What You’ll Learn
When an LLC Makes Sense
An LLC is not required for most Self-Directed IRA investments, but there are situations where using one may provide additional flexibility or make managing certain assets easier. Kyle will explain when an LLC may be encouraged, when it may be unnecessary, and the limited situations where an LLC structure may be required. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of where an LLC can fit within a Self-Directed IRA strategy.
Structuring the LLC Properly
Using an LLC inside a Self-Directed IRA requires more than simply creating a business entity. Kyle will cover important considerations such as how the LLC should be vested and funded, the differences between single-member and multi-member LLCs, and who may or may not be allowed to participate. He will also discuss formation, dissolution, and why investors should be careful about drafting or structuring the LLC on their own.
Managing Funds and Avoiding Mistakes
Once an LLC is established, investors must continue following Self-Directed IRA rules when managing the account and its investments. Kyle will explain how funds should move between the IRA, LLC, and investments, along with important do's and don'ts related to prohibited transactions and disqualified persons. Self-Directed IRA investors will leave with a better understanding of how to use an LLC properly while avoiding common mistakes that could create compliance concerns.
