Next Generation Trust Company, a custodian and administrator of self-directed IRAs, announced a strategic partnership with Stairway Invest LLC to provide accredited investors with access to Stairway Loan Accounts (SLAs). The SLAs offer a personally guaranteed 8 percent per annum return, with funds invested primarily in U.S. real estate, including affordable housing and renewable energy, as well as assets in Australia, Canada and Brazil.
Jaime Raskulinecz, CEO of Next Generation Trust Company, stated that real estate remains one of the most popular alternative assets in self-directed IRAs, and this partnership allows accredited investor clients to earn a guaranteed ROI from a liquid product using their IRA funds. To participate, accredited investors must first open and fund a self-directed account with Next Generation Trust Company, then allocate a portion to Stairway Invest. Interest is credited to the SLA, and both principal and accumulated interest can be withdrawn at any time back to the IRA.
Stairway Invest, founded in 2002, has worked with accredited investors in real estate for nearly 25 years. According to founder and CEO Austin Fowler, the managers personally guarantee client principal and interest, backed by their own worldwide portfolios. The SLA is SEC-compliant, liquid, has no fees, permits unlimited transactions, and interest is credited daily.
Stairway also provides client education on passive real estate investing through an online forum, professional capital raising, and a white label service for professional investors who want to use Stairway's infrastructure to raise capital as liquid debt.
