"I just want to thank you so much for making this experience for me an enlightening, empowering,  and educational one.  When I reflect on  how I learned about you was by calling the IRS to inquire about trading my IRA for real estate, they had you call me and the rest is history. I have learned so much through this process that I am actively sharing my experience and I am a strong advocate of uDirect IRA.  You literally walked me through the process, even though when I started this I had no idea what a "custodian" was, or,  any of the other terms that I have learned.  This seems like such a no brainier that I'm embarrassed to think that I let that amount of money sit in an account and make a 4% return.  I truly believe that not only will I get the benefit of appreciation on the property, I will make a 8% return on my investment.  I do think this is the worse kept secret as far as retirement investment options.  How many people get to drive by and see their IRA everyday?  From start to finish this took 3 weeks.  Once again,  thank you!"

Cyndee, uDirect Client ~ Gladstone, OR

"I was referred to uDirect by a mutual friend. I had been researching companies to do my self-directed plan with and was very impressed by Kaaren's professionalism and willingness to answer questions. I had very bad customer service experience with two other companies. I could not believe that these two companies treated me so poorly and I refused to trust them with managing my funds. I was so happy to find Kaaren and uDirect. Kaaren walked me through paperwork and made sure everything was taken care of. She kept in touch with me through each step. Even with my first transaction, where timing was important, Kaaren took extra time to make sure it got done. I am already referring friends and family."

“I met Kaaren at a real estate IRA seminar. I was looking for a company to assist me with investing my own IRA funds after the ’07 real estate downturn. I was so impressed with her presentation that, after some due diligence, I decided to invest my own IRA funds with her company. I now recommend her to my clients whom I assist with their real estate purchases”
