Hello, thank you for the question! You would need to get an appraisal to establish the value, which is the value that would be reported as the distribution. The property would be distributed to you, requiring a deed transfer from the IRA, to your personally. This would require you to record the new deed with the respective county recorder. If the property is held in a pre-tax account (Traditional IRA) you will pay taxes on the amount you distribute (value of the property). If you are under 59 ½ years of age, you would have a 10% penalty and taxes. If a Roth IRA, the account has been seasoned for 5 years, and you are over the age of 59 ½, you should incur no taxes as the Roth IRA grows tax-free and qualified distributions are tax-free. Consider discussing with a tax advisor why you might distribute the property instead of keeping it in your IRA for tax advantages.
Hello, it is possible to purchase real estate outside of the country with a self-directed IRA, but required additional care and attention. First, you should identify an attorney in that country you are purchasing real estate in, and then also secure an international tax professional to help you navigate the international tax laws.

way more expensive. but you can do a Non-Recourse loan to use your SD IRA. That way you can use leverage to pay less up front, have the SD IRA be on title and then have the renters pay your mortgage every month!
