Easily transfer or roll over funds from another custodian. We’ll guide you through the process and help coordinate paperwork to minimize delays. Depending on your current custodian, transfers may take several business days to a few weeks. We are available to assist you from day one.

Step 3
Put your money to work.
Start investing as soon as your account is funded. With a Self-Directed IRA, you can invest in a variety of alternative assets including real estate, private equity, startups, cryptocurrency, precious metals, and more—subject to IRS guidelines.
The IRS limits certain investments and transactions in self-directed accounts. It’s up to you to follow the rules, but we’ve got resources to help. Check out our Prohibited Transactions FAQ and talk to your tax or legal advisor to stay on track.
What is an alternative investment?
An alternative investment is anything outside of stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. An alternative investment might be purchasing rental real estate or investing in a cool new startup, and those are just two examples in a universe of possibilities.
Invest in more
Stocks and bonds are good assets to add to a portfolio, but there are several other types of alternative assets that can diversify your retirement funds.

I could not find another organization that could do this as efficiently and in that price range. They're very responsive and in the way they communicate to me I find helpful, direct, and they put it in terms that I understood.
