They performed exactly as they said would when I was doing my due diligence on the checkbook IRA. Their connection to Madison Trust is a big plus as well.
Great customer service. Very attentive and willing totake time to answer all questions.
I found Broad Financial searching for a new IRA Custodian. I liked the idea of the Checkbook Control so I contacted them; after talking with them, asking a lot of questions, and reading reviews I felt they would be a good fit. Everyone I've been in contact with is professional, polite, and friendly.
Are in the process of opening up the "Trust Checking Acct" and so far all is good. The binder was extremely informative and leads us through step by step.
The process has been quick and easy.
The process was very smooth and timely. I did a lot of investigation on IRA LLCs and Trustee Holding companies, and this was by far the most effective for my needs.
I would highly recommend broad financial to anyone interested in taking control of their finances.
The concept of a self directed IRA was new to me and seemed intimidating. I searched online and found Broad Financial as the best fit for my needs and contacted them. They made the whole transaction clean, simple, and prompt. I would recommend to anyone wanting to look at retirement investment to get in touch with this firm. I was very satisfied.
Thank you for the guidance Avi.

Answer: I got scammed last year for just over $50k on what I thought was a legit investment site. Everything looked real — I even withdrew a small amount at first — then one day my account was “under review” and the site vanished. I reported it to the FTC and pretty much gave up hope. Months later, someone who saw my complaint told me to email cyberfundsrecovery12@ gmail. Com. I was super skeptical (once bitten, twice shy), but they actually knew exactly how these scams work. It took about 3 months of paperwork, verifications, and bank back-and-forth, but I got a big chunk of my money back. Not all of it, but way more than I thought I’d ever see again. If you’ve been scammed, don’t give up — there are people who can help, but be careful who you trust.
Answer: Hello Robert! There are no restrictions in this case, but in order to transfer your Self-Directed IRA to an IRA that allows you to invest in stocks, you would need to liquidate or retire any alternative assets before rolling over to a QRP. Another option is that your plan administrator must write a letter saying they accept alternative assets. However, this depends on the type of investments you would be holding at the time.
