Why Video?

Most investors first learn about the 1031 exchange after it’s too late to use one — at tax time, looking at a capital-gains bill that a 30-second conversation could have deferred. These videos exist to move that conversation earlier. No jargon, no 40-minute webinars: one rule, one mistake, or one strategy per video.

Want the deep version? Start with the complete 1031 exchange guide, check your deadline math on the 45/180-day timeline, or estimate your deferral with the 1031 calculator. And if a video raises a question about your own sale, ask Leah directly — before you go under contract, not after.
