New Free Course: Navigate Your First 1031 Exchange

You bought a property for $200,000 and sold it for $350,000, leaving you what appears to be a profit of $150,000. However, once you account for capital gains tax, which can be 20-35% or more of your taxable gain, you’re looking at an immediate loss of $50,000+.

This scenario is a perfect example of why 1031 exchanges are such vital resources for investors. They help investors temporarily defer capital gains taxes, allowing them to keep more of their sale proceeds to invest in a new property.

But what is required to use a 1031 exchange? What professionals are involved in them? What are the stages?

In our latest free Academy course, The Aspiring Investor's Roadmap: Navigating Your First 1031 Exchange, you'll follow a first-time investor as they navigate their first major real estate transaction, gaining a better understanding of the professionals, milestones, and key decisions involved at every stage of the journey.

What You’ll Learn

In this course, you will learn:

  • How to identify the key professionals who are involved in buying and selling property in a 1031 exchange
  • How and when professionals like lenders, photographers/stagers, inspectors, escrow or title officers, and others join the transaction
  • How to navigate the major stages of a transaction with greater confidence
  • How PropStream can support the workflows of agents, buyers, sellers, and other professionals during a deal
