Lear Capital has helped people purchase physical precious metal assets for more than 25 years — including bullion, premium rare coins, and bars, founder and Chairman Kevin DeMeritt says.
If you’re considering joining the more than 90,000 satisfied customers the Los Angeles-based precious metals firm has worked with, you may be wondering why investors have decided to add precious metals to their portfolio with assistance from Lear Capital.
Some of the Lear Capital reviews that have been shared on various online platforms suggest the following reasons have been a factor.
Economic Drivers
A number of investors have mentioned in reviews they wrote after becoming Lear Capital clients that the state of the stock market and the U.S. economy influenced their decision to purchase precious metals.
Take Evan S., for example — who says the company provided insight and assisted with his precious metal purchase.
“I decided, because of the uncertain stock market conditions, to contact various gold and silver dealers to possibly purchase some gold and silver,” Evan wrote in one of the Lear Capital reviews shared on the Trustpilot platform. “He walked me through the process and I purchased some metals. Everything was handled to my complete satisfaction.”
Economic conditions — such as elevated inflation — can also prompt investors to turn to precious metals, according to Kevin DeMeritt.
“Each year that goes by, if I’m losing [a percentage] of the value of my paper money’s purchasing power, I need something to offset that,” DeMeritt says. “Numerous investors view silver as a hedge against inflation because it has tended to increase in price during periods of high inflation.”
Joe H. obtained the precious metal from Lear Capital through a process he described as being “seamless and gratifying.”
“Knowing that I can [have] something that will never lose its value gives me confidence that I will be able to sustain my family when the dollar fails completely,” he said in one of the Lear Capital reviews posted on Google.
An Interest in Diversifying
Investors sometimes opt to incorporate gold into their portfolio because of its track record as an asset that has historically retained or increased in value over time, Kevin DeMeritt says.
Randall J., for example, contacted Lear Capital when he decided to make physical precious metal assets part of his saving plans.
“When given the one-time opportunity to receive a lump sum payout or roll over to an [individual retirement fund] of invested retirement funds from a former employer, it wasn’t hard to decide to roll those funds into a Gold and Silver IRA,” he said in his Lear Capital review on Google. “I feel so confident and genuinely cared for in my retirement investment that [it] is hard to put [it] into words. [It’s a] secure, real money investment that will only grow, and grow.”
Tim M. also transferred funds into a precious metals-backed IRA with Lear Capital’s help.
“I recently decided to look into moving some money from an old IRA into a Gold IRA,” he said in one of the Lear Capital reviews on Trustpilot. “I contacted Lear Capital, and they not only provided all the information I needed, they made the process of moving my money seamless. I’d highly recommend them to anyone considering a similar move.”
In a review of Lear Capital on Google that praises its customer service approach, Mike R. said he felt the company was great to work with.
“[I] took half my 401(k) out, and they helped me get an IRA account set up,” he said. “[They] provided some insight without pushing on options and upon request provided their opinion.”
What Lear Capital Reviews Say About the Assets Customers Buy
After one of Jessica R.’s clients told her Lear Capital is the only precious metals provider he would recommend, she reached out to the company.
“I placed my first silver order online with confidence and excitement,” Jessica wrote in one of the Lear Capital reviews on the Trustpilot platform. “The Lear team was excellent — they contacted me several times along the way. I received my insured package very shortly thereafter and the silver bars are simply stunning. I am a client for life now — and I’ve referred several friends since.”
Faith S. called the company when she and her husband were discussing purchasing precious metals, but weren’t sure how to do so, she says.
“In a matter of a couple of weeks after the funds cleared, we received our purchase,” she said in one of the Lear Capital reviews that’s available on Trustpilot. “What a thrill to hold gold and silver and know that we are securing our future in these troubling times.”
In one of the Lear Capital reviews that are available on Trustpilot, Tim S. said he was pleased with the hundreds of coins he’s bought from the company.
“I’m sure whoever is shopping for quality products and great service will be hard pressed to find a better company than Lear Capital,” Tim said.
Purchasing precious metals may be easier than you think — particularly if you have assistance from an experienced industry member like Lear Capital.
To get started, Kevin DeMeritt says, you simply need to call the company.
“Talk with one of the representatives, [who] will get you the paperwork to transfer whatever portion of that IRA or 401(k) or 403(b) [you] would like over to a physical precious metals IRA,” Kevin DeMeritt says. “You can purchase, sell, or liquidate those precious metals at any time.”
