Your Go-To Channel for All Things 1031 Exchanges
As a commercial real estate professional and national expert in 1031 Exchanges, I’ve spent the last eight years immersed in the nuances of one of the most powerful tax-deferral tools available to real estate investors. Since then, I’ve identified a glaring issue: More than 60% of exchanges fail every single year. This isn’t due to lack of opportunity, but poor planning perpetrated by a lack of proper education. This realization inspired a mission that has shaped my practice and sparked a bold new step forward. Introducing my YouTube channel, “Best 1031 Online” named after my website that was launched in Summer of 2020.
Why “Best 1031 Online”?
Let’s face it, the internet is saturated with inaccurate, confusing, and downright misleading information about 1031 exchanges. Social media platforms are littered with advice from unqualified sources and others claiming to be “specialists”. Many investors, particularly the elderly, fall victim to these misguided claims, especially amid the growing popularity of Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs). It’s disheartening to see securities brokers, who are not licensed in real estate thereby lacking any expertise, misrepresent themselves as 1031 specialists and lead unsuspecting investors astray.
Let me be clear, the DST is a great product, and I am grateful that it qualifies as an exchange option, however, because of its limitations and illiquidity, it is not for everyone and in my opinion only serves a decent backup option.
That’s where “Best 1031 Online” comes in. My goal is simple: provide accurate, accessible, and actionable education about 1031 exchanges to agents, brokers, and investors alike. This channel is not just another drop in the content ocean—it’s a lifeline for real estate professionals seeking to elevate their knowledge and for investors striving to make informed decisions.
