🚨Attention Investors in Partnerships - you cannot blindly trust your partner.

It doesn’t matter if you “delegated” the finances to your partner. You’re still responsible.

No LLC or insurance will bail you of financial messes of your own making or ignorance.

No time like tax season for a little “trust but verify”.

Cost seg is not a one size fits all portfolios strategy.

1. They are expensive to do property and you need some ROI on that expense when it comes to tax savings. Your holding strategy for the property matters too
2. There is no better time to plan for taxes than Q1. We’ve got a 9 month runway right now to execute. Q4 really puts you and your professional team under the gun.
3. Timing matters. If you know your gonna have a high income year next year, maybe we wait until then to layer on crazy tax savings like cost seg and bonus depreciation. No benefit in trapping those losses

At the end of the day, when it comes to legal and tax for investors, there’s gotta be strategy based on your unique tax situation and portfolio to back it up, not just catchy hooks.

A potential game-changer for the American Dream. 🇺🇸

I’m tracking the specific legislative language to see where the line is getting drawn for what constitutes a large corporation. For those of us who own single-family rentals, the exact wording of this bill matters.

What are your thoughts?

I’ll never forget getting a phone call from my social studies teacher and mock trial coach on Christmas Eve my sophomore year of high school.

She was calling to kick me off my position as an attorney on the team because they decided it wasn’t fair that a senior didn’t get that spot. That the coaches decided I could just wait my turn to be a lawyer.

So here’s what I did ⤵️

Graduated high school at age 17 ranked #13/612 students

Graduated college at 20 with highest honors from the business school and honors college

Got a 95% scholarship to law school at 21

Graduated with honors from law school at 24 & passed 2 bar exams at the same time

Started my law firm at 29

Taking a 3 week summer sabbatical has become one of my favorite summer traditions.

I won’t lie. It came out of necessity - my kids’ summer camp ends about 3 weeks before their first day of school… and it’s my husband’s busiest few weeks of the year with most of our turnovers happening Sept 1. As a workaholic, I honestly don’t think I’d just give it to myself.

My first thought with seeing this childcare gap a few years ago was “what parent can manage this?!”

Then I realized it was me. I could manage this.

Spending August with my kids is the absolute highlight of owning real estate and working for myself.

Does the actual math add up? No, of course not. I’d make more than we’d pay in gap childcare.

But it’s my “why” and that’s worth everything.

Here’s a recap of what I was up to for the last few weeks of August:

☀️ First trip with the kids to NYC and My kids walked over 7 miles around manhattan that day with a cartwheel filled pitstop in Central Park
☀️ Beach days with grandparents, great grandmother, and cousins and boardwalk nights with forever friends
☀️ Adventures
☀️ San Diego for tax planning boot camp
☀️ R&R girls night in Cape May at The Virginia with a beautiful dinner on sunset beach and perusing
☀️Exploring Philly with the kids

It was perfection. (Even if I was TOTALLY ready for school to start back up at the end of it!!)
