Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Gold and Silver IRA?

A precious metals IRA, which can include gold and silver, as well as metals like palladium, is an IRS-approved account that lets you invest in precious metals to save for retirement. It offers many of the same tax advantages as other types of retirement savings accounts, such as Roth IRAs, traditional and simple IRAs and 401(k) accounts. However, with a precious metals IRA, you invest in tangible assets like gold and silver, rather than stocks and bonds.

What are the Advantages of a Gold and Silver Self-directed IRA?

The primary advantages offered with a self-directed IRA center on it offering a convenient and safe way to build wealth for retirement. Stocks, bonds and real estate can all depreciate in value because of economic circumstances like recessions and high inflation. The American dollar can also quickly lose value and make your investments in such assets less valuable.

However, gold, silver and other precious metals have solid histories in retaining their value through a wide variety of economic challenges. They also offer universal value and are widely recognized as one of the most accepted forms of global currency.

Further, precious metals come in a variety of forms, allowing you to invest in the ones that best suit your wealth-building goals. You can buy gold, silver and other metals in coins, bars and bullion. You also obtain a tangible, beautiful and high-value asset to add to your portfolio.

When you partner with Sedona Bullion and want to fund your self-directed precious metals IRA, you can use cash to buy the precious metals in which you want to invest.
