In this episode, hosts Adam Carswell and Michael Flight bring on Willam “Bill” Exeter, President & CEO of Exeter 1031 Exchange Services, to discuss how 1031 exchanges make real estate properties tax-efficient. A 1031 Exchange is a swap between one real estate investment property for another “like-kind” investment property that allows the investor to defer capital gains taxes, using the Section 1031 IRS code. Bill expertly goes through the process of how to conduct a 1031 exchange with real estate properties and agents such as him help investors to save the most on taxes and invest in the properties they want. Michael, Adam and Bill also explain the timeline, identification process, fund holdings, closings and more for these tax-efficient 1031 Exchanges. Closing the show, they touch on how investors can maximize savings and tax deferral through the “swap till you drop” method.

Michael and Adam would like to give a huge thanks to Bill for coming on the show and sharing his knowledge and experience with the Nothing But Net community.
