Bruce has over 47 years of experience in financial services, with an emphasis on real estate. Today he’ll share case studies with us on how he has been able to save his clients a lot of tax money. We’ll hear how a client who is a flipper is able to take his gains from a flip, use them to buy another flip, deferring the taxes until he doesn’t want to buy anymore properties. We’ll also hear about an alternative to 1031 exchanges that defers paying taxes, but does not force you to buy more real estate, along with more unique strategies Bruce helps his clients with.
