Find Out How to Avoid Capital Gains Tax on a Property Sale! (Hint: 1031 Exchange‪)‬ Real Wealth Show: Real Estate Investing Podcast

    • Investing

The buy and hold strategy is a great strategy for real estate investors, but what do you do if your property has increased substantially in value and is no longer giving you a reasonable return on your equity? In other words, if you consider the value of your property today, would it still make sense to rent it out? If not, you may be sitting on a lot of dead equity that could be put to better use. And the best way to do that is by selling the high value property and exchanging it for a better-performing property without paying a capital gains tax on the one you sell. This is what you call a 1031 exchange and is beloved by knowledgeable real estate investors. But there’s a very specific procedure to follow which you’ll find out about in this interview.
 
You’ll hear from the owner of 1031 Specialists, Jeffrey Bemis, who is now helping RealWealth investors with the 1031 exchange process. Jeff has a lot of experience in finance and real estate. He previously worked for Ernst & Young as a CPA before turning his career toward finance and attaining his CFA title. In 2006, Jeff joined Rimrock Capital Management, a California-based hedge fund with $4 billion dollars under management. He led the less liquid and alternative capital strategies at Rimrock during his 15 years as a portfolio manager which included billions of dollars of investment in commercial real estate transactions. Jeff then left Rimrock but took all his experience with him to start 1031 Specialists which he describes as a tech forward, education first, customer centric company unique in his industry.
