Going from stocks to real estate
Hello everyone, I’m new to real estate and that even feels like an understatement. The more I listen and read the more questions I feel like I find and need answers to.
That being said the one thing that I see many people talk about is trying to get that first deal financed and get your ball rolling. I am in the position where I have a decent portion of stocks, they were left to me and I really have no interest in that market.
Now many people take advantage of using a 1031 exchange to go from property to property and I was curious if there is anything out there that would help avoid the tax burden of just selling off stocks to fund a first purchase.
Thanks you in advance for any and all help.
