Investing in Central America with your IRA
Since 1975 when the first IRA account was opened, investing in real estate, and indeed, even foreign real estate was a distinct possibility. The problem was, most of us were never informed by our broker or financial advisor, as they often had competing financial products they wanted to offer in our retirement plans.
But now you know better; as long as the investment is titled and held according to the IRS guidelines, and there is no personal use or prohibited transactions, you may own investment real estate in your self-directed IRA, both in the USA and elsewhere. Better yet, with a Roth IRA, the possibilities may be better than ever.
