    386. 5 Tax Scams That Could Get You Audited in 2026

    Every year, real estate investors are pitched "exclusive" tax strategies that promise massive deductions, tax-free sales, or unbelievable savings. The problem? Many of these strategies collapse under IRS scrutiny and taxpayers are left paying the price. In this episode, Nate Sosa and Justin Shore break down some of the most heavily promoted tax strategies that they do not recommend, including: - Syndicated Conservation Easements - Monetized Installment Sales - Deferred Sales Trusts - Discounted IRA Rollovers - Equipment Leasing Schemes They explain how these strategies work, why promoters continue selling them, what the IRS has already said about them, and the penalties investors could face if they participate. Most importantly, they discuss why legitimate tax planning almost always beats chasing "secret" tax loopholes.

    385. How To 1031 Exchange Into Oil & Gas (Instead of Another Rental Property) with Khris Allen
