1234 - Here’s the “Lazy 1031 Exchange” and How To Do It by G. Brian Davis Mar 01, 2024

Show notes

This is why I use the “lazy 1031 exchange” strategy: no hoops, no hassles, no hiring custodians.

But before explaining what a “lazy 1031” is, let’s make sure we’re all on the same page about how standard 1031 exchanges work.

Show notes

Commercial real estate has had a few rough years, and it seems like things won’t be getting better anytime soon. The sector is set for a potential rise in defaults, as higher interest rates have increased the costs of refinancing.

And with $2.8 trillion due between now and 2028, more landlords could be feeling the crunch. According to data firm Trepp, commercial debt maturities are expected to balloon in the next few years. While many loans were extended or refinanced, the clock is slowly ticking for the CRE sector as those extensions are coming due.

1231 - Essential Tax Breaks Every Real Estate Investor Should Know in 2024 by Datha Santomieri Feb 27, 2024

Show notes

Running a rental business comes with its fair share of headaches, but one upside is that just about every rental activity associated with buying, maintaining, and operating a rental property is tax-deductible. We’ll walk through a checklist so you remember to keep track of your actual expenses and get the maximum tax benefit.

At the end of the day, the logic is that you should only have to pay taxes on your profits, which is your rental income minus all of your expenses. That’s the number that will be entered on Schedule E when you file your taxes.

1229 - New TikTok Trend Says We’re in a “Silent Depression”—Are They Right? By Anna Cottrell Feb 25, 2024

Show notes

If you’ve been on TikTok recently—and perhaps even if you haven’t—you may have heard about the viral new concept of a ‘‘silent depression’’ that’s apparently overwhelming younger people in the U.S.

No, we’re not talking about the country’s mental health crisis. We’re talking about what a few TIkTokers are referring to as the dire economic reality facing ordinary people trying to make ends meet.

The term ‘‘silent’’ refers to the fact that, on the surface, the U.S. economy is doing well. We are not in a recession; unemployment rates are low. And yet, people struggle to afford the basics more than they did in the past.

Before discussing how to calculate the number of properties needed to replace your current income, understand that retirement is not a one-time event. Retirement requires rental income that will enable you to maintain your current standard of living for the rest of your life.

Show notes

Much recent news in real estate has centered on home prices, which appear to still be rising. But what about the profits from home sales?

The latest Year-End U.S. Home Sales Report from ATTOM paints a less rosy picture of what’s going on in the real estate market. In fact, it’s showing that home sales profits dropped for the first time in a decade in 2023. So what are the figures, and what do they mean for investors?

1225 - Two Unique Ways You Can Fund Your Kids’ College With Real Estate by Liz Zack Feb 21, 2024

Show notes

Got kids? Then, eventually, you’ll (most likely) also have college bills. And spoiler alert: They will be big.

While it’s certainly not a parental requirement, footing the college bill (or any part of it) and allowing your kids to graduate debt-free is an enormous gift—one of the biggest you can give your children. Conventional savings vehicles, like 529s, are amazing tax-free-withdrawal vehicles, but they’re not the only way to get to the finish line. You can also use your real investing superpower to build the college trove, and you don’t need to have started saving in utero (although that always helps)

Here are two ways to fund college with real estate, whether you’re starting early or a little later.
