Learn How to Invest in Real Estate Tax Free at EPIC Group on April 28, 2015

Come join us at our next Peachtree City EPIC Group meeting on Tuesday, April 28th at 6:30PM at the Green Ginger Asian Fusion Restaurant located at 200 Market Place Connector in Peachtree City, GA. Our special guest speaker will be Scott Maurer, Director of Business Development for Advanta IRA. Scott will be sharing his expertise on how to use a self-directed IRA to invest in real estate and grow your wealth tax free.

Many investors don’t know that it’s even possible to use retirement funds when investing in real estate. Most IRA accounts are invested with banks and brokerage firms who do not allow for this type of investment within their portfolios, but IRS regulations certainly allow for many types of alternative investments. Self-directed IRAs allow individuals to use their IRA funds to purchase rental property, rehabs/flips, private mortgages, tax liens, and much, much more. By using a self-direct IRA, an investor can utilize this “new” bucket of cash to acquire assets that they can better control and thus drive better returns to their IRA. Best of all, the gains from these investments go back to the IRA without any tax implications.

At the meeting you will learn:

• What types of accounts are eligible to be self-directed
• How you can move money from current IRA custodians without worrying about tax implications
• What the rules are pertaining to prohibited transactions and disqualified persons
  (In short, what you can’t do with your self-directed IRA)
• How the process works from contract to closing, and how the earnings come back to the IRA on a tax-deferred or tax-free basis
• How to obtain “checkbook control” over your IRA for the purpose of real estate investing
• And Much, Much More!

Scott has worked for Advanta since 2006, and is a frequent speaker on the topic of self-directed IRAs and using retirement funds to invest in real estate and other alternative assets. Scott is also an attorney and a member of The Florida Bar.
