    U.S. and UAE Real Estate Strategies for Global Capital

    In this episode of Wealth Uncensored, I sit down with my brother, Erik Sexton, SIOR, a trusted advisor to high net worth individuals and family offices on U.S. commercial real estate, to dissect the complexities of investing in property across jurisdictions. We start by unpacking U.S. tax considerations for foreign investors, including entity selection, FIRPTA exposure, and strategies to improve after‑tax returns. We then transition to estate planning and asset protection for U.S. real estate holdings, focusing on structures that shield wealth and facilitate legacy transfer. Next, Erik and I explore the UAE real estate landscape, taxation, ownership vehicles, and planning tools for investors. We highlight actionable structures that align tax efficiency with robust protection and discuss common pitfalls for foreign buyers in both markets. Whether you’re a family office allocating global real estate capital, or an individual investor seeking cross‑border clarity, this episode delivers tactical insights you can apply now.

    Freedom or Chains? The Responsibility of Inheriting Wealth

    In this episode of Wealth Uncensored, Jimmy Sexton dives into a topic too many wealthy families overlook: the burdenthat wealth can place on the next generation.

From crippling tax exposure and reporting obligations to threats from lawsuits and divorce, inherited wealth can restrict the freedom of the very people it’s meant to empower. Jimmy talks about how proper structuring using trusts, foundations, and sound governance can liberate future generations instead of chaining them to compliance, tax bills, and risk. If you want your legacy to be a gift, not a liability, this episode is a must-listen.
