Many of my readers are familiar with the IRS Section 121 Exclusion that allows married couples a $500,000 Capital Gains exemption ($250,000 for unmarried homeowners) on the sale of their personal residence.
I have been following US Census data closely since 2010. As a real estate advisor, I’d like to know which areas of the country have populations that are growing faster than the national average – I think buying in these areas gives us a better chance of success. 2023 population estimates were just released: let’s take a look at the results.
One of the big benefits we receive from our investment real estate (including partial interest properties) is tax savings from the depreciation benefit. If we own the land our building is on, we can only depreciate our improvements’ value since land is not depreciable. With a ground lease, however, we don’t own the land. Therefore, our entire purchase price can be depreciated – for potentially substantially more tax savings!
Hate the loan application process, but need a new loan to fulfill your 1031 Exchange requirements? Partial Interest properties come with turn-key debt that can make your replacement property purchasing process a lot simpler.
Since 2001, my investors have purchased over 545 partial interest properties – including DSTs. Once an investor purchases the property; what then? Does it sell sometime in the future? When? This month, my article walks us all through the plans and the process.
I believe that higher population growth leads to a higher number of potential renters for our apartments, and a higher number of potential customers for our tenants.
Using The Service Station Deduction To Shelter Capital Gains And Accumulated Depreciation Taxes From Investment Real Estate Sold Without A 1031 Exchange
Many of my clients own multiple properties, and it’s not uncommon for them to sell at about the same time. When this happens, we will combine their 1031 Exchange Accounts. There can be many benefits to doing so, as this article examines.
Net Leased Properties are valued according to the amount of income they provide, the length of their leases, and the financial strength of their tenants. We can increase value in such properties by improving any of these three metrics. This month, we’ll discuss how to enhance tenant credit.
A big part of investment success comes from analyzing your performance. What works, what doesn’t, and what can you do better? To do this, you’ll need to produce a Cash Flow Statement for each of your properties. It’s not hard to do – this month’s article will walk you through it.
Single Family Residential rentals create poor cash flow when compared with NNN leased or multifamily investments. The reason for this is actually a benefit to Single Family owners – their values are comparatively higher than other investment properties. This month, we’ll explore the potential benefits you can enjoy when moving from single family to NNN or multifamily investments.
The Opportunity Zone is a powerful tool that Congress created that allows investors to defer non-1031-eligible Capital Gains through real estate investing. Congress has not extended the legislation that created this tool, so the current round of Opportunity Zone funds on the market may be the last once they sell out in 1st quarter, 2024. This could be your Last Call if this is something that can help you.
