How can I use self-directed IRA money to participate in internet auctions for tax-lien certificates?

Question by investor8406: How can I use self-directed IRA money to participate in internet auctions for tax-lien certificates?
I’m trying to get started in investing in tax-lien certificates using money in my self-directed IRA. I’d like to try participating in online auctions for county tax sales, but many of them require you to deposit some sort of “down payment” as good faith money. Does anyone know if/how I can get the money from my IRA for my deposit, so that my IRA completely holds the entire interest in these assets? Thanks in advance for your help.

You need to find a custodian that allows that. Do a google search as I don’t know any names, but they’re out there.

They filed a tax lien against me about 30 days ago and now they have frozen my bank accounts. I am literally without any access to my money at all. I will have to put the entire payment of $7000 on a credit card. How long until they relinquish my funds in the bank?
