Investment retirement accounts IRAs are supposed to be sacrosanct.
Still, every rule has its exceptions. The rules differ depending on which type of IRA you have, though. Here are your options. To use money in your IRA to buy a house, you must be a first-time homebuyer. You are considered a first-timer if you and your spouse, if you have one haven't owned a home at any point during the last two years. So even if you owned a principal residence at some point in the past—say, five years ago—you may well meet the first-time-buyer requirement.
The key word, by the way, is principal. If you've owned a vacation home or taken part in a timeshare during the last two years, the exemption can still apply.
You can tap into your IRA and qualify for the exemption if the money is to help an eligible child, grandchild, or parent buy a home. And that's even if you're a homeowner now. You won't get to use the first-time homebuyer provision again to buy a home, even if you use a different IRA. The rules are different for a Roth IRA.
If it's been fewer than five years since you first contributed to a Roth IRA, you'll owe income tax on the earnings. This rule, though, doesn't apply to any converted funds. These are specialized IRAs that give you complete control over the investments in the account.
You can invest in vacant lots, parking lots, mobile homes, apartments, multifamily buildings, and boat slips. In other words, you and most of your relatives can't live in the home, use it as a vacation property, or otherwise personally benefit from it.
As the SDIRA—not you—owns the home, using personal funds or even your time sweat equity to benefit the property is prohibited. As long as you are investing in real estate [that's] not for personal use, you can use your IRA to make that purchase.
