HOW IT WORKS

Setup Your Fortis Account

Open your Self-Directed IRA bank account with our team.

Choose Your Property

Explore a wide variety of properties and decide where you invest.

Secure Financing

Non-Recourse Loans are the perfect solution for SDIRA and real estate.

Grow Your Investment

All rental income and capital gains go directly back into your IRA.

No Personal Liability: the borrower is not personally liable; the lender can only seize the collateral if the loan defaults.

Secured by Collateral: backed by the value of real estate or other assets, limiting lender recourse to the pledged property.

Our specialized non-recourse loans are tailored for Self-Directed IRAs and Solo 401(k) real estate investments, ensuring full compliance with IRS regulations.

IRS Rules Prohibit Personal Guarantees:
Self-Directed retirement accounts cannot pledge personal assets or credit.

Protects Retirement Savings: the property itself serves as collateral, keeping your finances and retirement savings secure.

Allows Leverage Real Estate Investments: your IRA or Solo 401(k) can buy real estate without needing the full purchase
amount in cash.

We assess the asset’s value, income potential and risk, rather than your creditworthiness as a borrower.

Down Payments: Often require 30-40% down to mitigate lender risk

Loan Size: $100,000 – $750,000

Advance Rates: up to 70%

Term: 3/1 and 5/1 ARM
