How 2 Buy a Post Office With your IRA is a report outlining the basics on how to buy and invest in commercial real estate from within your IRA

1. How To Buy a
U.S. Post Office,
A Home Depot, and
A Wal-Mart With Your IRA
From: Paul Forsberg
Commercial Income Property Specialist
Retirement Account Specialist
Over the last few years, Americans
have struggled to recover from the
devastation of their IRA and 401(k)
stock portfolios. "Steady the Course,"
"Ride It Out," and “Dollar Cost
Averaging” are
Wall Street's talking points and mantras for the un-educated,
Kool-Aid drinking public to get them to keep their dwindling
retirement money in commission generating stocks. Primarily
benefitting the financial planners, the stock brokers and crooked
bankers on Wall Street.
Where Else Have You Heard
Of Paul Forsberg
... Considered by many to be one of the
foremost experts in Florida

assists both active and passive
investors in maximizing their wealth
through smart commercial real estate
investments.
“Paul is the “Go-To” guy when it comes to
the Florida Real Estate Market. Specializing

But not all of them are buying it.

After decades of a monopolistic stranglehold by Wall Street, a
handful of Non-Wall Street Companies have emerged to offer
alternatives to standard Wall Street products.

The new competition truly benefits you by offering a wide range
of investment options that can often be safer and more lucrative
than stocks, bonds, and mutual funds.
Called Self Directed Plans, more and more people are becoming
aware of the fact that there are alternatives to typical IRAs or
401(k)s, the information about all of the alternative retirement
plans (Self-Directed IRAs, Check Book Control Self-Directed
IRAs, SEPs, etc.) is often lame and overwhelming.
No wonder Americans are confused and opt not to change
anything.

“Simplifying confusing financial information
about commercial real estate is what I do.
I turn it into easy to understand information for
people who want to invest in income producing
assets for appreciation, cash flow and tax
advantages.
Our "Done-For-You" asset management service
is a huge benefit for investors who do not want
to deal with the headaches of management,
maintenance or work, yet appreciate the ability
to physically visit, touch, smell and shop at their
investments any time they want.”- Paul Forsberg
A lack of knowledge regarding your retirement options can add
years to your time on the job and result in many missed
opportunities. But it doesn't have to be that way. A moment taken
to understand your retirement plan options can lead to a lifetime of financial security.
What Are Your Alternatives?
To put it simply: You can invest in products other than stocks, bonds, and mutual funds with your retirement
plan.

2. These "alternative" investments include, but are not limited to:
 Real Estate,
 Tax Liens
 Businesses.
. . . . . But to be allowed to invest in these investment products, your retirement plan must be
. . . . . "Self-Directed."
Anyone Can Have a Self-Directed Retirement Plan. These plans are not limited to certain people or business
owners or the self-employed. You can have a Self-Directed plan.
There are several types of Self-Directed retirement plans, and some companies are busy creating a host of more
variations that appeal to people who want to diversify their IRA portfolios beyond Wall Street. Depending on
the type of plan you choose, you will be able to invest in different things. Each offers certain advantages.
Let's take a look at just one of them.
The Self-Directed Real Estate Investment IRA
This is one of the newest and most innovative individual retirement vehicles available today.
The Self-Directed Real Estate IRA is designed for those interested in investing a part of their IRA into great
investment real estate, such as commercial investment real estate. It is really just a matter of transferring the
money from your current IRA account, into a Self-Directed account, then, into the real estate investment.
All Of The Profits
From That Real Estate Investment
Including Cash Flow And Appreciation Are Tax Free!
This plan is well suited for people who want to own investment real estate but do not want to be involved in any
of the typical management or maintenance headaches that go along with it. It is also a plan well suited for those
that want to diversify their IRA investments OR convert cash flows and equity profits to tax free income.
For example. I recently put together a Real Estate Investment Fund. This Fund raised approximately $2,000,000
to invest in real estate. Out of the $2,000,000 I had 8 investors contribute $50,000 - $100,000 each - from their
IRA. Now, their IRA owns over $4,000,000 in great commercial real estate and as I mentioned before, the
investors get all of the profits of that real estate tax free!
I’m in the beginning stages of putting another one together right now. It is a
10,000sf strip center with 5 tenants, located in the middle of town. 4 of the
tenants have been in the same location for over 10 years, and there is only one
vacancy. The property has been completely renovated in 2004 and kicks out a NICE
positive cash flow. Seller is an older retired gentleman who wants to get his
estate in order and is willing to finance it at 4.75% interest for 20 years!
I am only allowing 7 investors at $50,000 each to come into the deal and it will
return an EASY 18% IRR over 5 years. PLUS a 4.5% preferred return on the invested
capital during the entre holding time.
(What Are You Getting on Your CD??)

OK - Think about this...
You could even buy a U.S. Post Office building...
Buying a U.S. Post Office
A U.S. Post Office building, depending on location and size, is an affordable, conservative investment. It can
provide 4 percent to 8 percent annual cash on cash, plus appreciation on the property. For example, in the past, I
have seen U.S. Post Office buildings for sale at $65,000 that generated $600 in monthly rents.
Of course, there are much larger Post Offices with much higher rents and asking prices.
Let's take a look at how the Self-Directed IRA Process Would Work.
With our assistance you form a Self-Directed IRA that pays $65,000 cash for the Post Office building.
The taxes are $1,950 annually (at 3 percent) and the insurance is $650 (at 1 percent. The Post Office pays
everything else: utilities, maintenance and repairs, etc.
 Annual Rent: $7,200.00 ($600 monthly) Annual Expenses: $2,600.00
 Net Cash Flow: $4,600.00 ($383.33 monthly) Yield, cash on cash: 7.08 percent
 Return on Investment (ROI): 12.08 percent
(Assumes 5 percent appreciation)
And over the years, your rental income will increase, leading to greater monthly cash flow in addition to
continuing appreciation.
If you stack up this conservative investment with the U.S. Government as a tenant against most Wall Street
products, you can see it does quite well.
Just One of Many New Alternatives for Your Retirement Savings ...
I hope I have helped to shed some light on the exciting range of new commercial investment real estate
retirement products available to you.
Remember, there are several types of Self-Directed plans.
Depending on your personal goals and situation, one will be exactly right for you.
Best,
Paul Forsberg
