These show notes are perfect for both full-time investors and anyone juggling a job while buying and managing properties on the side. If youāre keen to build long-term wealth, boost cash flow, and keep more of your profits from the taxman, tune in to learn how. Brandon Burns is a senior leader in the 1031 exchange space, guiding investors through thousands of deals to help them make the most of their equity without getting walloped by capital gains taxes. š
1ļøā£ Brandonās Background & Why 1031 Exchanges Rule
Brandonās got a robust background in real estate tax, finance, and title, and heās oversaw 4,000+ exchanges. He explains how 1031s let you swap properties of ālike kindā and defer taxes so you can scale fasterāwhether youāre flipping houses full-time, steadily growing a rental portfolio, or working a 9-to-5 and investing on weekends. š¼
2ļøā£ Key Tax-Saving Strategy
Deferred Taxes: Roll your capital gains into a new property instead of handing money over to Uncle Sam.
Flexibility: You can upgrade from a single-family home to a multifamily, or even jump into commercial, so long as itās real property.
Legacy Building: Keep exchanging until you pass properties on to heirs, who often enjoy a step-up in basis. š ā”ļøš¢
3ļøā£ Real-Life Example: The Coastal Fourplex
Brandon shares the story of a California fourplex owner who cashed out big-time and shifted $1.5 million (postātax-free chunk) into Midwestern duplexes. This investor scored stronger monthly returns, expanded the portfolio, and never had to cut a giant check to the IRS. Talk about unlocking cash flow while steering clear of a tax hit! š”š°
4ļøā£ Managing Your DealsāFull-Time or Part-Time
Proper Setup: Hire a Qualified Intermediary (QI) before you sellāonce you touch those funds, the exchange is off.
Timing Matters: Youāll have 180 days to close on your new investment(s), so line up your next move efficiently.
Stay Strategic: Brandon recommends focusing on deals that boost your overall growth, whether youāre an everyday landlord or a large-scale operator.
5ļøā£ Action Steps
Evaluate if your current property is maxed out on appreciation or not pulling its weight in cash flow.
Consider a 1031 exchange to upgrade or diversify.
Build a rock-solid team (broker, QI, attorney) to keep everything on track. š¤
Final Takeaway
Brandon Burns proves 1031 exchanges can catapult both new and seasoned investors toward their financial goalsāno matter if youāre all-in on real estate or balancing it with another career. With the right approach, you can continuously build wealth, defer taxes, and grow your empire over time.
