  • EP 32 - Unraveling the Mystery of Net Lease vs. Multi-Unit Investment Real Estate
    Nov 23 2021
    One of the most common questions we get from our podcast listeners, especially in today’s crazy, fast-paced real estate market, is what type of investment real estate should I buy? Should I buy single-family residential properties (SFR), multi-family residential apartment properties (MFR), or some type of commercial real estate such as office, retail, industrial, etc? If I sell unimproved vacant land, what can I reinvest in? Should I invest in active management or go with passive management investment real estate such as net lease properties, syndicated tenant-in-common properties (TICs) or Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs)? We’ll unravel this mystery in this episode of Go Ahead, ASK! Podcast.

  • EP 31 - Unraveling the Mystery of the Proposed Tax Policy Changes Affecting 1031 Exchanges, Self-Directed IRAs, and Individual 401(k) Plans
    Nov 16 2021
    This is the 100th year anniversary of the 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange. Investors have been able to sell real estate held for rental, investment, or business use and defer the payment of Federal and most state taxes by reinvesting in other real estate also held for rental, investment, or business use for 100 years.

    Retirement account investors have been able to use their Self-Directed IRAs and Individual 401(k) Plans to invest in non-traditional assets, often called “alternative investments” since 1974. This includes real estate and real estate related assets, including various regulated investment options that require the investor to be an “accredited investor.” Real estate related assets can include real estate, promissory notes secured by deeds of trust or mortgages, tax lien certificates, limited partnerships, limited liability companies, and more.

    The “Build Back Better Act” (2021) continues to be advanced by the House Committee on Ways & Means, which may have a significant impact on your ability to use 1031 Exchanges, Self-Directed IRAs, and Individual 401(k) Plans. We’re Unravel the Mystery of the Proposed Tax Policy Changes Affecting 1031 Exchanges, Self-Directed IRAs, and Individual 401(k) Plans.

  • EP 28 - Unraveling the Mystery of Proposed Tax Policy Changes Affecting Self-Directed IRAs and Individual 401(k) Plans
    Sep 23 2021
    Self-Directed Traditional IRAs have existed since 1974 when the Employee Retirement Income Security Acts of 1974 (“ERISA”) was enacted. Self-Directed Roth IRAs came later in 1997 when Senator William Roth introduced legislation to create the Roth IRA as part of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997. Retirement account investors have been able to use their Self-Directed IRAs and Individual 401(k) Plans to invest in non-traditional assets, often called “alternative investments,” including various regulated investment options that require the investor to be an “accredited investor.” The “Build Back Better Act” has been advanced by the House Committee on Ways & Means, which will prevent retirement account investors from investing in these regulated non-traditional assets and require those who have already invested in these assets to divest themselves of these assets within two (2) years if the investments require the retirement account investor to be accredited, licensed, etc.

  • EP 25 - Unraveling the Mystery of Reverse 1031 Exchanges
    Aug 17 2021
    There are so many reasons why you might want – or need – to close on the acquisition of your replacement property before closing on the sale of your relinquished property as part of your 1031 Exchange. Buying your replacement property first is referred to as a Reverse 1031 Exchange. The Reverse 1031 Exchange can take much of the risk out of your 1031 Exchange since you can close on the purchase of your like-kind replacement property first. It can help address difficult real estate markets where there are multiple offers, bidding wars, offers above asking price, all-cash offers, short closing periods, etc.
