    Key Takeaways from the Article

    It is important to consider the following five items when thinking about using Rollovers for Business Acquisitions (ROBS):

     

    1. Eligible plans include 401Ks, traditional IRAs, Keogh plans, Thrift Saving Plans (TSPs), and more.

    2. ROBS effectiveness is optimized when $50,000 or more is rolled over. 

    4. Any legal U.S.-based franchises, startups, and acquisitions may qualify for ROBS; however, the business must be structured as a C Corporation.

    5. ROBS can be combined with alternative funding methods including SBA and seller notes.
