The fees charged by Self Directed IRA companies can vary widely. Here is how to save $1,000 to $1,500 in your Self Directed IRA every year. 

What to Avoid: 

1. Percentage Based Fee: Some IRA Companies charge fees based on a percentage of the value of your account. This acts like dragging an anchor that is holding back you account's progress because, the more successful your account becomes the more your IRA will be charged each year.

While it may be reasonable to pay an investment advisor based on asset size, paying for custodial services in that manner makes little sense. Avoid percentage based fees.

2. The Wrong Type of Account: There are two types of Self Directed IRAs:

• Standard Self Directed IRA
• Checkbook Self Directed IRA

Most IRA Companies offer one kind or the other; and may suggest only the type they sell regardless of what is best for you. The IRA Club offers both types and will match your account type to your needs.

Spending a few minutes speaking with an IRA facilitator that offers both types will help you understand the differences. Owning the right type of account will save you thousands of dollars over the life of your Self Directed IRA.

Fees:

You are unique and so are the needs of your IRA. Most fee schedules contain many services  you may not need to pay for. An IRA Club representative will be able to quickly develop a cost efficient program that fits your needs so you will leave even more money in your IRA each year .
