They cover key topics such as:

- The fundamentals of tax loss harvesting and how it benefits real estate investors.

- Active (or direct) indexing and how it differs from traditional ETFs.

- How to use equity losses to reduce or eliminate capital gains on your real estate sales.

- The role of technology in simplifying direct indexing and maximizing returns.

- Who should and shouldn’t consider this strategy based on portfolio size and investment goals.

Whether you're a real estate purist or an investor with a diversified portfolio, this episode will provide you with another tax-saving strategy to enhance your wealth-building journey.
