American IRA will be hosting Ben Stef for a webinar on using DSCR financing to purchase real estate within a self-directed IRA. In this session, Ben explains how DSCR loans work, why investors use them, and the key considerations when using leverage inside retirement accounts.
The discussion explores the benefits and risks of financing IRA-owned real estate, common challenges investors face, and strategies for making informed borrowing decisions. Attendees will also learn how to evaluate leveraged real estate opportunities and build a long-term investment strategy with greater confidence.
What You’ll Learn
DSCR Lending
Learn how DSCR loans are different from traditional mortgages and why real estate investors often use them for rental properties. Ben will explain what lenders are looking for, how the property’s income can impact approval, and why this type of financing may open doors that a standard bank loan does not.
IRA Leverage
Using debt inside a self-directed IRA can create more buying power, but it also changes how you need to evaluate a deal. We’ll discuss how leverage may help investors grow an IRA-owned real estate portfolio while also highlighting the rules and planning questions that should be understood before moving forward.
Hidden Risks
Leverage can increase opportunity, but it can also create problems if the numbers, loan terms, or IRA rules are misunderstood. This topic will cover common issues investors should watch for, including cash flow pressure, financing limits, and tax considerations like UBIT or UDFI that may apply when debt is used inside an IRA.
