buying a free and clear home from somone?
Hi All, I'm new to the bigger pocket forums and investing but I'm trying to learn as much as possible.
I was hearing the biggerPockets Podcast where an investor bought a property that was free and clear from someone on a carryover to help them avoid the tax liabilities.
Can someone help explain that and how its done & the benefits to the seller?
