It always amazes me how many real estate investors are still doing their own year-end taxes, or they're working with a tax preparer who doesn't specialize in real estate. While hiring an expert to do your taxes can be expensive, it's much preferable to the alternative, which is not maximizing the powerful tax benefits you receive from investing in real estate. My guest today is a profit first accountant who has saved her clients over $1 billion in taxes. Shauna The Tax Goddess is going to share the top tax saving strategies for real estate investors. We'll be discussing cost segregation, real estate professional status, and the differences between short-term rental and long-term rental taxation. Shauna is also going to share some strategies that many investors aren't even aware of, such as paying your children, renting out your personal residence for less than 14 days tax-free, and writing off your dog.

As a real estate investor you may have noticed that it has gotten a lot more difficult to acquire financing for your projects. That's why it's so important to build your lender relationships.

There seems to be a lot of fear in the commercial real estate world about the amount of distress in commercial office buildings. In San Francisco, a Market Street tower that was purchased for $62 million in 2016 was recently sold for $6.6 million. That's a 90% haircut! But where many see distress and ruin, my guest today sees opportunity.

One of the biggest expenses in owning rental property is the cost of utilities—electric, gas, water, sewer and trash. The better we understand these costs and how to control them, the greater our profit potential can be. Often, tenants are responsible for paying their own utilities, but many owners pay these costs on behalf of the tenants because of how the systems are split and billed by the various providers. Today, we discuss how owners can maximize ROI through submetering (the practice of installing individual meters for utilities (such as water, electricity, or gas) in rental units or properties) and utility billing with Kelly Koontz, President of Submeter Solutions.

Today we're going to talk about some of the major trends that will affect real estate investing over the next decade. We all know there's a housing shortage in the U.S., but how does this offer local investors a special advantage? Demographics play an important role, with Gen Z leading a youth movement that has created a visible shift in the market. With over 15 million vacant homes in this country, could those properties help solve the housing shortage? If so, how can investors get access to them? We'll be discussing these topics and trends today with Kurt Carlton, the Co-Founder and President of New Western - the largest home buyer in the United States.

After the housing crash in 2008, millions of struggling homeowners asked for loan modifications with their lenders. Many of these homeowners were relieved to find out that their lender was willing to forgive their 2nd mortgage as part of the modification process. That was all well and good, and it saved borrowers hundreds, if not thousands, in monthly payments. But now those loans are coming back to haunt them, and the investment groups that bought up those loans for pennies on the dollar are foreclosing on them in order to sell the property at a profit. There are few people who understand this strategy better than my guest today. Shante Duffy is a trusted expert in the note space, and she's going to help us understand this strategy from the investor's point of view and offer suggestions to homeowners who might find themselves in this situation.

We recorded this exciting panel on boutique hotels and resorts at the recent 2024 Midwest Real Estate Investor Conference. As the host of this podcast, Brian Hamrick doesn't often have the opportunity to discuss his own investments. But today he sits down with two of his partners to share how they've been applying the short-term rental model to recent acquisitions of a boutique hotel and several resorts, along with the challenges faced, and the strategies employed to find success. Jeremy Garcia and his wife Melanie own quite a few vacation rentals in Muskegon Michigan, and several years ago we partnered on building out an 8-unit boutique hotel in downtown Muskegon. We also acquired a 7-cabin, 3-house resort in North Muskegon with beautiful Lake Michigan frontage. And we've started our own short-term rental property management company called DreamStay – go to www.bookdreamstay.com Alex Jarbo lives in Asheville, North Carolina and is a writer on short-term rentals for Bigger Pockets.

Everyone is paying close attention to the Federal Reserve and wondering when they will begin lowering interest rates. The lower-than-expected jobs report from two weeks ago certainly got people excited, but inflation is still being stubborn. What is really going on with our economy, and how can we cut through the noise of the popular media and focus on the data that really matters? In economic times of doubt, it helps to have Dr. Paul Isely make sense of what's really going on and what we should be paying attention to. Paul is the Associate Dean and Economist for Undergraduate Programs in the Seidman College of Business at Grand Valley State University.
