ParticipantI am assuming that you mean an IRA, which was rolled over from a 401k plan, so it is now a self-directed IRA ….
I have always found self-directed IRAs’ fees to be excessive, and compliance a bit of an annoyance, such as:
http://www.penscotrust.com/fees/ira_fees.asp
I have decided personally that it makes more sense to buy large-cap stocks or industry-specific ETF’s (exchange traded funds) because the management fees are low, and it is easy to get in and out.
Everyone’s risk tolerance and investment goals are different, but I would definitely avoid land in the middle of the desert without mineral rights or “regular” water (i.e. not from wells).
Land is so illiquid, and speculative, that it does not seem like it would an investment suitable for almost anyone’s retirement.

Participant2009-2010 will probably be the time frame that most Piggingtons will mention to start looking to buy.
Until then, renting makes so much more sense financially.

ParticipantAt the bottom, the general attitude will be “real estate is a terrible investment. It will never bounce back.”
When the prevailing sentiment is very negative (and not “it will be over soon”), then it will be time to buy.
Sentiment is still very positive, or at least not all that negative. This website and others like it are still in the minority.
