Qualifications

IRA Resource Associates, Inc.’s principals have been assisting IRA accountholders with IRAs and non-traditional IRA investments since 1986. Patrick W. Rice, in particular, has been at the forefront of IRA investing with real estate-related products (land, improved real estate, trust deeds, mortgages, real estate contracts. etc.). He has been an investment real estate broker since 1978 and has held a real estate broker’s license in four states.

For most of his early years in real estate, Mr. Rice represented national bank trust clients, helping them acquire and liquidate investment real estate held in trust. IRA Resource Associates, Inc.’s principals first started working with IRAs in 1986 when a client approached them with a desire to invest his IRA in a real estate trust deed. Since that time the popularity of real estate and IRAs has grown so much that the majority of IRA Resource Associates, Inc.’s time is spent working with IRA accountholders interested in real estate investments.

When first approached to represent IRA accountholders in their quest for real estate products, Mr. Rice found both resistance and a tremendous lack of knowledge within the investment community. Through diligent research and dogged stubbornness he was able to develop the knowledge and expertise he now uses to represent clients throughout the United States. Finding a self-directed administrator is not difficult--finding the right one for you is.

He is an author of “IRA Wealth: Revolutionary strategies for real estate and riches” (Spring 2003, Square One Publishing) and many magazine and newspaper articles on real estate and the IRA. You can see many of his articles on this site. He continues to write and lecture on IRAs and real estate, mainly in the Pacific Northwest. For larger firms, Mr. Rice is available to meet with you and discuss IRAs and real estate as it specifically applies to your business.
