“We have over 300 private clients with Directed IRA and previously used several different SDIRA companies before finding Directed IRA.   Our office has found Directed IRA easy to work with, are very thorough and professional, and they have excellent follow up.  When it was time to setup personal accounts for my spouse and I, it was an easy decision to choose Directed IRA.”

Since moving our accounts from another custodian we can only ask “Why not sooner?” Directed and in particular Alec Dyson, are responsive, answer the phone, offer valuable advice and guidance on how to get transactions done quickly and efficiently.

Great experience with the entire team at DirectedIRA! Everyone I spoke with was eager to help and very informative. Geneva went above and beyond in processing my Roth Conversion. I recommend DirectedIRA to anyone looking for a self-directed custodian to assist with your goals of alternative investments.

I discovered DirectedIRA through following Mat and Mark on YouTube, where they offer excellent financial advice. The process of opening an account was seamless and fast, and I was guided every step of the way by Michelle, who was incredibly patient and helpful. Currently, I’m in the process of purchasing a property, and Joe Bass from DirectedIRA has been invaluable in assisting me throughout. He’s been prompt in replying to emails and has provided top-notch guidance. The customer service at DirectedIRA is outstanding—whenever I need help, there’s always someone available to answer my questions. I highly recommend DirectedIRA for their professionalism and dedication to their clients.

Creating a Roth IRA has been a bit of a learning curve for me. I also wanted to have something I could invest in alternative things such as crypto currency. Directed IRA has helped me every step of the way. Their customer service is excellent and I am very happy to be working with Directed IRA.

I recently moved a portion of my account to a directed IRA. I am investing it into a PPM for Real Estate. I have to say the customer service is outstanding! I worked directly with Michelle Rodriguez. She was very responsive and quickly responded to all my questions. I will definitely be recommending them to all my clients!

I found these guys on YouTube, watching the many very informative videos by Matt Sorensen and Mark Kohler. I wanted to buy real estate in my IRA and Schwab does not allow this. I really liked the idea of an LLC to own my property with a bank account that I could control. I went with Mat’s full package solution from Directed IRA, KKOS lawyers, and several of their other subsidiary companies to handle each step (registered agent for the LLC, etc). I also used their recommended bank. The entire process was delivered in a confident, tightly integrated, and organized manner. Excellent work, highly recommended.

I have been doing business with Directed IRA for about 14 months. Everyone on their team has been super helpful, especially Teagan. They are all very knowledgeable and have great patience. I love that I deal with the same team members each time I need something. I would recommend Directed IRA highly and have already recommended them to friends and family.

My experience with Directed IRA has been stellar. I had a ton of questions and they were patient and walked me through the process at my own pace. I felt heard. Most importantly, their response time was fast when I needed answers and reached out to them. I would, and will, recommend them to friends and family.

Having worked with other SDIRA custodians, Directed stands out compared to others. They have reasonable fees, and great customer service. The coordination with their legal team was seamless. If you are considering the benefits of a SDIRA, I would reach out to them to at least have a conversation.

I have appreciated the training and information available on the Directed IRA podcast and youtube channel for a while now. I have finally taken the plunge into self-directing my own retirements funds and Directed IRA has made the process seamless. Thank you team for your help.

Working with Directed IRA to open my first SDIRA has been great experience. Was able to roll over all my past 401Ks seamlessly into my new account. Everyone has been super responsive with all my questions – great customer service! Highly recommend!!!

All I can say, Mat and his team are top notch! I’ve dealt with several custodians, but never at THIS caliber! Another 5 stars to Nate Hare, the Educational Director. His vast knowledge and passion to educate my clients has made the difference. The investors are trust in using Directed IRA as their goto for rollovers and the education and clarification of the use of SDIRAs to build wealth. Thanks Nate and team.
