June 04, 2026 Build Your Million-Dollar IRA Power Team: Experts You NEED for Self-Directed Success
Schedule a free call with a New Account Specialist: https://www.iraclub.com/podcast-link/
In this episode of the Investors Row podcast, we dive deep into the essential members of your 'power investment team.' Building a robust self-directed retirement strategy requires more than just picking assets - it requires a specialized network of professionals who truly understand the self-directed IRA and Solo 401k landscape.
You'll learn why local brokers and standard financial advisors often lack the tools to facilitate alternative investments and why having a knowledgeable CPA, specialized attorney, and experienced administrator is non-negotiable for protecting your assets.
We discuss critical topics like avoiding prohibited transactions, navigating UBTI, performing Roth conversions, and ensuring your estate planning is aligned with your long-term goals.

May 14, 2026 Unlock Private Investments with Your IRA (No Accreditation Needed!) - Introducing Bequest Fund
Schedule a free call with a New Account Specialist: https://www.iraclub.com/podcast-link/
In this episode, Shawn Muneio, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Bequest Asset Management, breaks down the barriers of the private investment space. For too long, high-level financial tools and alternative asset classes were reserved exclusively for accredited investors. This video explores the transformative power of Regulation A (Reg A+) offerings, which allow everyday investors to access private credit and mortgage-backed opportunities with as little as $5,000. We discuss why major financial institutions often steer clients toward conventional stocks and bonds, and why branching into self-directed IRAs can be a game-changer for your long-term wealth strategy.

March 31, 2026 How to Use a Self-Directed IRA to Invest in High-Yield Boutique Hotels: The Boutique Hotel Fund
Schedule a free call with a New Account Specialist: https://www.iraclub.com/podcast-link/
In this episode of the Investors Row Podcast, we explore the rapidly growing world of experiential hospitality and why boutique hotels have become a premier niche for alternative investing. Our guest, Tim Ensmann of the Boutique Hotel Fund, shares his journey from scaling luxury short-term rentals to launching a boutique hotel fund that targets undervalued "mom and pop" assets in high-demand, drivable destinations like Blue Ridge, Georgia. By focusing on "wow factor" amenities, such as saunas, cold plunges, and pickleball courts, these commercial assets create significant pricing power and economies of scale that traditional single-family rentals simply cannot match.
We also dive deep into the mechanics of diversifying your retirement portfolio beyond the standard offerings of Wall Street. Learn how savvy investors are utilizing Self-Directed IRAs to access private equity real estate deals that are typically unavailable through traditional custodians. Tim outlines his "conservative underwriting" approach to mitigating risks like interest rate fluctuations and construction delays, providing a masterclass for accredited investors looking to turn their nest eggs into high-performing, tangible assets.
