Equity Trust Company has been the custodian of my IRA account for over 10 years. I have found their representatives to be knowledgeable and helpful. I have bought and sold trust deeds and real estate and have never encountered any problems. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable custodian for a self-directed IRA.
