A A. There are certain restrictions when it comes to borrowing money from your Roth IRA. While you can't take out a loan from your Roth IRA like you can with other retirement accounts such as a 401(k), you may withdraw funds for short periods of time.

First-time home buyers of any age can withdraw up to $10,000 from a traditional IRA penalty-free for a home, and your spouse can also withdraw up to $10,000 from his or her IRA penalty-free for the purchase. Youâll avoid the early-withdrawal penalty, but youâll owe taxes on the money.
