Description

In this off-the-cuff episode of Nailed It: The Construction and Real Estate Finances Podcast, hosts Jeremy Bottlinger and Ian Grove tackle a listener's question about basis resets in a 1031 exchange, with their trademark wit and no-nonsense vibe. They break down how a 1031 exchange defers capital gains taxes by swapping one property for another, like a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST), but warn there's no basis reset unless you pay the tax or, well, kick the bucket. They also touch on UPREITs and passive income quirks, urging listeners to dodge TikTok tax myths and consult a CPA before making moves!
