Vested is a self-directed IRA custodian built for investors who want real control — real estate, private equity, crypto, precious metals — without the legacy software that makes every other custodian feel like filing taxes.
The problem
Every transaction requires custodian sign-off. Days lost. Opportunities missed.
Setup fees, quarterly fees, asset-based tiers, transaction charges. No one knows what they're paying until the statement arrives.
Prohibited transactions, UBIT, IRS reporting. Most custodians hand you a rulebook and wish you luck.
Why Vested
We don't just hold assets. We handle the IRS titling, prohibited transaction checks, and required reporting — so you stay compliant without a compliance department.
One clear annual fee. No tiered asset charges. No surprise transaction fees. You always know what Vested costs.
API-driven account management. Real-time transaction tracking. Built on current technology, not COBOL from 1985.
Real estate, private equity, startups, crypto, precious metals, notes, trust deeds — if the IRS allows it, we can hold it.
What you can hold
Self-direction isn't a loophole. It's a strategy. Vested gives you the infrastructure to execute it — compliantly, transparently, without the friction that makes alternatives feel like too much work.
