Our Story
Timothy Schubert and Matthew Mayers have decades of experience helping people form IRA owned LLCs. During that time, they learned that the process can be complicated.
Many IRA custodians do not permit the IRA LLC strategy and those that do, require lots of paperwork. Even more problematic is that most banks do not understand the IRA LLC structure and clients would spend hours going from bank to bank trying to open a checking account. Historically the entire process often took a month or more to complete from start to finish.
Then the fees! Many lawyers and self-proclaimed IRA LLC “experts” charge $1,000 or more to draft an operating agreement and that does not include fees payable to the state.
Having learned from these experiences, Matt and Tim founded Easy IRA LLC – a one stop checkbook IRA solution. Easy IRA LLC does everything for you – from establishing your self directed IRA with Solera National Bank, forming your IRA LLC with a name of your choosing, preparing the LLC operating agreement and even opening a bank account for your LLC at one of our partner banks. We do it fast and at a fair price. We make it EASY!
