Yes, if the loan is secure (I would never do otherwise). In addition to promissory note (a document explaining the terms of the loan) you get a deed of trust or a mortgage (an instrument securing the loan).

Some investors like to invest into traditional assets as well as alternative assets in their self-directed accounts. Others, especially those who get great returns with real estate will favor alternative assets. There are a few providers that can help you with a self-directed IRA or 401k who post in these forums. Contacting some may be pretty helpful as you do your research.
I like "self-directed" because I get to chose and control my investments.

Mark, give it a try :-). Miss one payment and you will get a demand letter from your lender, late payment will be reported on your credit report and like Dmitri said they will eventually foreclose on you
