In December of 2013 Jonathan Brooks stole 6 millon$ from 37 investors in a Real Estate scheme in Aiken S.C.. Equity Trust enabled him to take our money and put it where ever he wished..The Attorney Generals office in S.C found him out & put all his holdings in recievership. Some of those involved lost over 500K....BEWARE, you may end up broke.

Equity Trust manages self directed IRA's. They can only do what you instruct them to do. If you instruct them to invest funds in a particular investment they will do so. They have no control over if the investment is a good one or a bad one. That is up to the IRA owner to research beforehand.
Also if you have any infomartion as to an asset held in a self directed IRA you need to communcate it to your custodian immediatly. The sooner you inform them the sooner you can minimize damage.
