@Jake Hughes A 1031 exchange is a great way to indefinitely defer all of the capital gains taxes, and gain access to that tax to use over time for your own benefit.

While these losses won’t immediately offset W2 income without REPS, they can be carried forward to offset future rental income or capital gains when you sell the property, lowering your tax burden long-term.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

The key is going to be showing the long term gains, since they won't see any returns for 1-2 years. 

The account fees are minimal compared to the potential gain with most syndication offerings. 

Gaining an understanding of the Zoning is vital to what can be built and essentially dictate how profitable the land can be.

The market appreciates 3% per year.If you pay cash for one house and rent it for $1,500, after five years, you'll have earned $90,000 in rent income and gained $34,000 in appreciation. 

I'm realtor for Magnolia Realty (we're owned by Chip and Joanna Gaines) and I work with quite a bit of investors on helping them buy and sell properties! 

It is a good group of like minded investors and I think the value you would gain there would be very beneficial as you get started. 

Especially with the favorable tax incentives offered to buy and hold real estate vs the ordinary income tax you'll pay on private lending.A 1031 exchange would allow you to indefinitely defer all of the capital gains tax you would have to pay, and instead use it to purchase better performing property/properties.

Hello,I sold 2 properties at a loss in 2023, and one property for a small gain in 2023.
