This week on the Major League Real Estate Podcast, we're kicking off a two-part conversation with tax attorney Matthew Rappaport, Chair of the Taxation and Private Client Groups and Vice Managing Partner at Falcon Rappaport & Berkman. In Part 1, Nate and Matthew break down what happens when real estate partners want to sell the same property but have different plans for the proceeds. Matthew then goes into partnership 1031 exchanges and the strategy commonly known as a "drop and swap," including why a reorganization may be necessary when one partner wants to exchange while another wants to cash out or when multiple partners want to pursue different replacement properties. They also discuss some of the costly mistakes that can put these transactions at risk, from failing to coordinate tax counsel, accountants, qualified intermediaries, brokers, and lenders to overlooking critical formalities involving ownership, agreements, insurance, banking, and tax reporting. Matthew also explains why New York and California deserve special attention, how state tax authorities scrutinize these transactions, and several of the court cases that have shaped today's 1031 landscape. And this is only Part 1.

In this MLRE episode, Nate and Tom continue their estate and trust planning series by exploring more advanced strategies investors should understand. They break down grantor vs. non-grantor trusts, intentionally defective grantor trusts, the trade-off between estate tax savings and the step-up in basis, and how strategies such as SLATs, GRATs, QPRTs, and dynasty trusts can fit into an estate plan. They also explain why estate planning shouldn’t be treated as a one-time exercise, and why getting the basics in place early matters even if your net worth is currently below the estate tax exemption.

Material participation is one of the most important and misunderstood tax rules for real estate investors. In this episode of the Tax Smart REI Podcast, Tom and Nate debunk five common myths involving Real Estate Professional Status (REPS), short-term rentals, the 100-hour test, property managers, equipment rentals, and partnerships. They also explain when a spouse’s hours count toward material participation, why those hours cannot be combined to meet the 750-hour REPS requirement, and what investors should know about Deferred Sales Trusts (DSTs). If you’re using real estate losses as part of your tax strategy, this episode covers the material participation rules and misconceptions you need to understand.

Could capital gains taxes eventually be adjusted for inflation, and could the home sale exclusion increase from $500,000 to $1 million for married couples filing jointly? In this episode of the Tax Smart REI Podcast, Nate Sosa and Justin Shore break down the discussion around capital gains indexing, how an inflation adjustment to tax basis could work, and why changes to the Section 121 home sale exclusion could have a significant impact on homeowners and real estate investors. Plus, Nate and Justin examine another major shift happening inside the accounting industry: private equity-backed consolidation, accounting firm roll-ups, and what those changes could mean for employees and clients.

Having insurance doesn’t necessarily mean your real estate investment is fully protected. In this episode of the Major League Real Estate Podcast, Tom and Nate discuss why market value, loan balance, insurance limits, and replacement costs can all be different, and why simply meeting your lender’s insurance requirements may leave your equity exposed. They also explain what happens when insurance proceeds exceed the cost of rebuilding, when those proceeds can create a taxable gain, and how Section 1033 may allow investors to defer that gain following certain involuntary conversions. Plus, they cover insurance reviews, replacement costs, entity details, documentation, and why investors and syndicators should regularly make sure their coverage matches their actual risk.
