You Could Be Paying Less In Taxes

Think you're paying too much in taxes? You're probably right. While most of us spent April 15th scrambling to file without any real strategy, savvy homeowners and investors are leveraging real estate to save thousands in taxes every year.

Real estate isn't just about having a roof over your head—it's one of the most powerful tax-saving vehicles available to everyday Americans. In this eye-opening discussion, Jeremy Larkin and Jesse Poll unpack three game-changing real estate tax strategies that could save you $10,000-$15,000 annually.

First, they break down the home sale exclusion—a benefit every homeowner should understand. If you've lived in your home for just two of the past five years, you can exclude up to $250,000 ($500,000 for married couples) in capital gains when selling. With today's appreciated home values, this single strategy could save you six figures in taxes.

They also explore rental property depreciation, explaining how converting your primary residence into a rental can jumpstart your investment journey while creating substantial tax advantages. For experienced investors, they demystify the 1031 exchange—a powerful tool that allows you to defer capital gains taxes when selling investment properties by reinvesting in new ones.

Perhaps most importantly, Jeremy and Jesse emphasize that planning is everything. Just like booking flights months in advance saves money, developing your real estate strategy early puts you at a tremendous advantage. And while AI and online tax services have their place, they simply cannot replace the personalized guidance of experienced real estate and tax professionals who understand your unique situation.
