How to Avoid Capital Gains Tax with a 1031 Exchange

Melissa Nash Real Estate Investor & Coach Season 2025 Episode 40

Stop losing 30-40% of your rental property profits to capital gains tax. In this episode, 1031 exchange expert Dave Foster from Exeter 1031 Exchange reveals how to legally defer taxes on property sales—and how to pass wealth to your heirs without anyone paying the deferred tax.

I've personally used 1031 exchanges three times to defer over $150K in taxes. Dave breaks down the critical timelines, reinvestment requirements, and the "swap till you drop" strategy that lets you build wealth tax-free for life.
