Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
What is a Self-Directed Solo 401(k)?
A Self-Directed Solo 401(k) is a retirement savings plan designed for self-employed individuals or small business owners without full-time employees. It offers high contribution limits and the flexibility to invest in a wide range of assets beyond stocks and bonds.
How does a Self-Directed Solo 401(k) work?
A Self-Directed Solo 401(k) empowers self-employed individuals to directly manage their investments through the establishment of a trust account with Checkbook Control at the bank of your choosing. With your plan set up, you can invest in a wide range of assets by simply writing a check from your Solo 401(k) account.
Who is eligible to open a Self-Directed Solo 401(k)?
Self-employed individuals or business owners with no full-time employees (other than themselves and their spouse) who generate earned income from their self-employment activities are eligible.
How long does it take to open my account?
In most cases, we can get your Self-Directed Solo 401(k) account established and open in less than a week.
What can I invest in with a Self-Directed Solo 401(k)?
You can invest in a broad array of assets, including but not limited to, real estate, precious metals, private equity, cryptocurrency, and much more — offering far superior control and flexibility than comparable plans.
What kind of fees are involved with opening a Self-Directed Solo 401(k)?
We offer a low, flat annual maintenance fee of $149 per year, which covers documentation updates and administrative support. However, unlike most self-directed retirement accounts, our Solo 401(k) has no everyday transaction fees. This is because the account holder performs all the transactions themselves with their dedicated checkbook.
Can I open a Roth Self-Directed Solo 401(k)?
Yes! If you’re seeking tax-free growth, we offer the option to open a Roth Self-Directed Solo 401(k).
