In this episode, Toby Mathis, Esq. sits down with insurance expert Caleb Guilliams to break down the truth behind infinite banking and permanent life insurance — and why so much of what circulates online is misleading. They examine how life insurance is routinely oversold as an investment, using Kyle Busch's widely publicized $8 million loss as a cautionary tale about what happens when policies are structured for agent commissions rather than client performance. Caleb explains the three distinct types of life insurance strategies — term, estate planning, and high cash value — and why the vast majority of people should start with term coverage before considering permanent products. Toby and Caleb also walk through how policy loans actually work, including interest rates, repayment flexibility, and the buy-borrow-die strategy as it applies to real estate investors. Additional topics include internal rate of return after all costs, the asset protection advantages of cash value, chronic and critical illness riders as an alternative to traditional long-term care policies, and the red flags that signal a policy has been designed to benefit the agent far more than the client. Tune in for expert insight on how to evaluate, structure, and integrate life insurance as part of a broader financial strategy!

In this episode, Anderson attorney Eliot Thomas, Esq., and CPA Barley Bowler tackle a wide-ranging set of listener questions on retirement accounts, real estate strategy, and business tax planning. They explain the key differences between non-recourse and DSCR loans inside a Solo 401(k), and why maintaining non-recourse status is critical to avoiding a devastating unrelated debt financing income hit. They walk through how to properly establish state residency when relocating and cashing out a 401(k), and clarify why donating fully depreciated work trucks to charity won't produce a charitable deduction or avoid recapture. Eliot and Barley also lay out a detailed framework for strategically unwinding a rental portfolio — factoring in passive losses, real estate professional status, and sale timing. They break down the reverse mortgage interest deduction rules for a mixed-use property, explain how insurance proceeds and roof capitalization work after hail damage, and make a strong case for why real estate should always be transferred — never sold — into a disregarded LLC. The episode closes with a warning about Universal Business Organization Trusts, a rarely used entity type that typically surfaces in fraudulent tax schemes and won't generate the refundable NOL investors hope for. Tune in for expert guidance on these and more!

Highlights/Topics:
0:00 — Intro
8:37 — "I want to change from a Solo 401(k) non-recourse SFR loan to a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan. Any tax implications or penalties to be aware of, particularly considering I'm 67 years old?" - No tax implications exist as long as both loans remain non-recourse.
14:35 — "I lived in Colorado January through March of 2025 and moved to Arizona in April. I had a small 401(k) that I cashed out in October 2025. Taxes were withheld. I understand I will be required to file two state returns. How will I reconcile the 401(k) for both states?" - Establish Arizona residency first; the 401(k) cash-out is taxed only there.
20:25 — "I have a fleet of work trucks that needs to be replaced. Can I donate the trucks to charity to avoid depreciation recapture? Can the charity then sell the trucks tax-free to fund their operations?" - Fully depreciated trucks yield no charitable deduction and no recapture to avoid.
25:08 — "From a tax perspective, what is the most strategic approach to unwind residential rental property?" - Track passive losses per property and time sales to offset income strategically.
32:33 — "I have a reverse mortgage on a 2-unit property where I rent one of the units. Will I be able to deduct the interest when I sell the property? What are the rules regarding reverse mortgages? Anything I should know after 10 years pass?" - Interest deductibility depends entirely on how the reverse mortgage proceeds were spent.
40:05 — "My rental property sustained hail damage that totaled the roof. I replaced it. Insurance paid for most of the work, but did not cover deductibles or roof depreciation. Can I recover those expenses using Federal and State tax codes? I live in California." - Out-of-pocket roof costs are capitalized and depreciated over 27.5 years.
43:58 — "When setting up a corporate structure to hold real estate assets, is it more tax efficient to sell the property to the corporation or just transfer ownership and declare it as startup capital?" - Transfer as a capital contribution; never sell to your own entity.
50:25 — "Can I sell my failing business/LLC to a Universal Business Organization Trust at 'cost basis'? Since the trust has no 'money/income' yet, I believe it will create a refundable NOL. Is that correct?" - No — the LLC's losses already flow through to your personal return.

In this episode, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., answer listener questions on a wide range of real estate and tax topics. They cover tax benefits available for raw land purchases, including property tax deductions under SALT and investment interest expense on Schedule A. They explain the IRS tax code reference for short-term rentals — IRC Section 469 and Treasury Regulation 1.469-1T — and address special considerations for Airbnb-type rentals in foreign countries, including the mandatory alternative depreciation system (MADS) and foreign tax credits. Amanda and Eliot discuss minimum purchase prices for cost segregation studies and highlight property types like RV parks, car washes, and convenience stores that offer strong bonus depreciation benefits. They tackle the vacation home standard deduction question, clarifying how Schedule E rental properties interact with itemized deductions. The episode dives deep into multiple 1031 exchange questions, including timelines for entering a second 1031, California's clawback provisions on out-of-state replacement properties, and the drop-and-swap strategy for LLC partnerships. They also explain how to navigate delayed IRS refunds using the Taxpayer Advocate Service, and break down the time limits and rules for changing LLC tax status, including Form 8832 and the five-year rule. Tune in for expert advice on these topics and more!
Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com
Highlights/Topics:
- 00:00 — Intro
- 07:06 — "We recently made a large land purchase. Are there any tax benefits we can claim against our income?" — Deduct property taxes under SALT and investment interest expense on Schedule A.
- 14:27 — "Is there an IRS tax code reference I can look at for short-term rentals?" — Yes: IRC Section 469 and Treasury Regulation 1.469-1T define short-term rental rules.
- 18:20 — "Any special considerations for short-term Airbnb-type rentals in foreign countries?" — Use mandatory ADS depreciation; claim foreign tax credits to avoid double taxation.
- 22:55 — "Is there a minimum purchase price you recommend for STRs? Also, what type of property is ideal?" — A building value of $150,000–$300,000 is an ideal cost segregation starting point.
- 28:21 — "With today's Individual Standard Income Tax Deduction now so high, how can a Schedule E Vacation Home still be a tax advantage when write-offs no longer exceed the Standard Deduction?" — Schedule E rental deductions are entirely separate from your standard deduction benefit.
- 35:46 — "I sold one investment property and bought two under a §1031 exchange. When can I sell the two §1031 exchange replacement properties and enter a new §1031 exchange without a tax penalty?" — Hold replacement properties at least two years and thoroughly document your rental intent.
- 41:15 — "If a property is sold in California in a §1031 exchange and the replacement property in Tennessee is later sold through a second §1031, does California have capital gains taxes that need to be paid?" — Yes; California tracks deferred gains annually on Form 3840 until the tax is due.
- 44:34 — "If you have an LLC partnership with 3 members that recognized a sale, can each member make their own election with respect to a 1031 exchange? Or must the entire entity participate in the replacement property?" — Use the drop-and-swap strategy carefully; the IRS watches closely for step transactions.
- 49:15 — "In June of last year, the IRS asked me to submit my previous taxes before receiving my current tax refund. I did so. When I check the IRS website periodically, it says my refund is delayed. I have attempted to call, but no answer from the IRS. How do I expedite receiving my tax refund? Thank you in advance." — Contact the Taxpayer Advocate Service and review your IRS tax transcripts online.
- 53:18 — "What's the time limit on changing LLC tax status?" — File Form 8832 with an election date up to 75 days back or 12 months forward.

In this episode, real estate data expert and multifamily investor Neal Bawa returns for the annual 2026 housing market forecast. Neal breaks down the performance of single-family and multifamily asset classes over the past several years, explaining why rents were essentially flat in 2025 and how the ICE workforce crackdown pushed a wave of unfinished inventory into 2026. He outlines why multifamily prices have hit a bottom — down 20–30% from their 2022 peak — and why that represents a buying opportunity, while single-family prices have remained surprisingly resilient due to the mortgage lock-in effect.
Neal also shares his prediction of a rental supply shortage in 2027–2028 that should drive rent growth and occupancy higher, offers frank advice to syndication investors on holding through the downturn, and explains why small interest rate cuts can have an outsized impact on equity. He also introduces AI as a major wildcard that could reshape housing demand beyond 2030. Tune in for data-driven insights and practical takeaways for investors at every level.

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson's Barley Bowler, CPA, and Eliot Thomas, Esq., address listener questions on a wide range of tax strategies for real estate investors, business owners, and healthcare professionals. They explain how seller financing affects the ability to use cost segregation and bonus depreciation under IRC Section 465's at-risk rules, and how a single-member LLC can recoup startup education costs through a C Corporation structure with shareholder loans. Barley and Eliot walk through the powerful tax advantages of setting up a management C Corporation over a Wyoming holding company — including medical reimbursements, accountable plan deductions, and W-2 solo 401(k) options. They cover what Medicare premiums and COBRA costs are reimbursable through a C Corp's medical reimbursement plan, how the Section 121 exclusion works for primary residence sales, and what options exist for mitigating a seven-figure business sale gain. Other topics include write-offs for uncollected insurance balances in healthcare practices, avoiding required minimum distributions by rolling into an employer plan, and electing pass-through entity tax in New York for investment partnerships. Tune in for expert guidance on these strategies and more!
Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com
Highlights/Topics:
7:18 — "How does the use of seller financing impact the ability to use strategies such as cost segregation and bonus depreciation?" Under IRC Section 465, your deductible losses are limited to the amount you have personally at risk. First phrase: "This is a great question. This covers a lot of different angles."
15:27 — "The business failed to make any profit in year 1. How are those initial costs recouped, and how much can be carried forward to future years?" A C Corp election allows full education deductions; fund via shareholder loan for tax-free recoupment. First phrase: "A single member LLC spent $9,500 on training and other related startup costs."
21:06 — "If I operate one LLC per real estate project, does it make sense to have a separate management entity to deduct shared expenses like an assistant, office costs, business meals, travel, and pre-development work? What's the correct tax structure?" A management C Corporation reduces rental income and allows tax-free reimbursements to the owner. First phrase: "If I operate one LLC per real estate project, does it make sense to have a separate management entity..."
27:45 — "What components of Medicare premiums are reimbursable by my property management C corporation?" Out-of-pocket Medicare and COBRA premiums qualify; general wellness supplements typically do not. First phrase: "What components of Medicare premiums are reimbursable by my property management C Corporation..."
38:10 — "If I sell my house, how long do I have to buy something else before I owe capital gains tax? Do I need to purchase the next home for more than the sale of the house or is there a percentage of that value?" Section 121 excludes up to $250K single or $500K married with no replacement property required. First phrase: "If I sell my house, how long do I have to buy something else before I owe capital gains tax?"
44:45 — "For my healthcare practice, where can I write off balances that insurance refuses to pay, and promotions/certain population deals where I give service discounts or free visits/supplement packages for charity events?" Cash-basis taxpayers cannot deduct uncollected income, and donated services are not tax-deductible. First phrase: "For healthcare practice, where can I write up balances? Insurance refuses to pay."
50:02 — "Can I avoid taking Required Minimum Distributions at age 73, if I roll over my retirement contributions from a previous employer's plan to my current employer's plan?" Rolling into a current employer plan may defer RMDs if you are not a greater-than-5% owner. First phrase: "Can I avoid taking required minimum distributions at age 73?"
53:12 — "Can an investment partnership elect the Pass Through Entity Tax in New York? What are the issues creating/dissolving investment partnerships?" New York allows any partnership to elect PTET, generating a valuable federal-level tax deduction. First phrase: "Can an investment partnership elect the pass through entity tax in New York?"
59:38 — "I sold my company, and I am coming into a 7-figure settlement soon. What can I do with that money to decrease my taxes?" Explore charitable remainder trusts, qualified opportunity zones, and capital loss harvesting strategies. First phrase: "I sold my company and I'm going to come into a seven figure settlement soon."

In this episode, host Toby Mathis, Esq., speaks with returning guest Chris Streit, a cost segregation expert from CSA Partners, about two frequently overlooked tax strategies that can save real estate investors thousands of dollars: Partial Asset Dispositions (PAD) and Qualified Improvement Property (QIP). They discuss how PAD allows investors to immediately expense the remaining value of replaced building components like roofs, rather than continuing to depreciate both the old and new assets simultaneously. Chris explains how QIP enables investors to leverage 100% bonus depreciation on commercial property improvements made after January 19, 2025, including improvements to short-term rentals.
The conversation covers the critical timing of converting long-term rentals to short-term rentals before making improvements, the necessity of cost segregation studies for substantiating these deductions, and real-world applications for various commercial properties including hotels, restaurants, and retail spaces. Toby and Chris also address common concerns about IRS audits and emphasize the importance of working with specialized professionals to maximize these often-missed deductions.
Highlights/Topics:
- (00:00) Understanding partial asset dispositions and roof replacements
- (07:11) Qualified improvement property explained for commercial assets
- (11:18) Converting long-term rentals to short-term
- (18:31) Bonus depreciation timeline and audit concerns

In this episode, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle listener questions on tax strategies for real estate investors and traders. They explain the tax implications of house flipping, including when to report income and how installment sales affect taxation. Amanda and Eliot discuss transitioning from a disregarded LLC to an S Corporation for managing rentals and flipping properties, emphasizing the importance of avoiding dealer status. They dive deep into 1031 exchange requirements, including timing constraints, qualified intermediaries, and the rules for converting investment property to a primary residence. Other topics include home office deductions versus reimbursements, deducting mileage for consultants with administrative offices, optimal business structures for active stock trading, differences between S and C Corporations, and the tax consequences of using corporate equipment for personal use. Tune in for expert guidance on maximizing tax savings while maintaining compliance!
Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com
Highlights/Topics:
- [00:00] Intro
- [06:26] I purchased a home for $12,000 in 2025 for flipping. Do I show it on my taxes at all or only after I flip? How do I calculate the taxes from flipping? If I want to sell a flip on installments – how does that change the tax? Report only after sale; calculate as ordinary income plus self-employment tax.
- [10:02[ What do you recommend to transition from a disregarded LLC to S Corp for managing rentals and doing house flipping as well? Use separate S or C Corporation to avoid dealer status.
- [14:10] I'd like to do a 1031 Exchange and eventually move into the property as my primary residence. How quickly can I do that? Wait 24 months with proper rental use before converting to residence.
- [19:03] What are some of the pitfalls of a 1031 exchange to focus on? Timing deadlines, qualified intermediary requirement, and boot recognition are critical pitfalls.
- [29:28] Can my S Corporation pay rent to me for my home office? And if so, is this considered personal income? Use accountable plan reimbursements instead to avoid taxable rental income.
- [33:32] If I am a consultant and take a gig at a company 35 miles from my S-Corporation's administrative office, can I write off the costs to get to the facility on the days I work there? Yes, with administrative office, mileage becomes deductible business travel expense.
- [36:41] What's the best business structure setup for active stock trading? Limited partnership with C Corporation general partner provides optimal tax benefits.
- [42:19] What are the differences between an S Corporation and a C Corporation for an LLC? S Corporation flows through; C Corporation pays flat 21 percent rate.
- [47:25] If I move equipment into my C corporation, can I still use it for personal use? Personal use over 50 percent creates taxable fringe benefit complications.

In this episode, Anderson attorney Clint Coons, Esq., sits down with real estate investor Gabriel Hamel to explore creative financing strategies for building wealth without traditional bank loans. Gabriel shares his inspiring journey from working minimum wage after military service to acquiring nearly 400 properties using seller financing and no-money-down techniques. They discuss how to structure creative deals, overcome the misconceptions about creative financing, the importance of cash flow over appreciation, and strategies for analyzing deals that work in any market. Gabriel also explains the power of building relationships, finding motivated sellers, and creating win-win scenarios that benefit both buyers and sellers. Clint and Gabriel emphasize the importance of taking action, getting involved in investment communities, and pursuing time freedom through real estate investing. Tune in to learn how you can start building your real estate portfolio even if you have little to no cash!

In this episode, Toby Mathis, Esq., sits down with 3,700+ unit operator Aaron Adams to discuss the six hottest real estate markets for 2026 and six markets to avoid. They cover the economic factors driving real estate growth, including GDP expansion, potential interest rate decreases, and tax bill impacts. Aaron shares his top picks: Kansas City (benefiting from Oracle's massive $28 billion Cerner acquisition), Idaho Falls (emerging nuclear technology hub), Charlotte (continued banking sector growth), the Winston-Salem triad area (affordability with five universities), and Indianapolis (steady lockstep growth in rents, wages, and prices).
On the flip side, they discuss why to avoid Chicago (high property taxes, population decline), San Francisco (rent controls, tenant protections), Detroit (60% population loss, aging infrastructure), New York City (landlord-unfriendly policies), Los Angeles (high acquisition costs, poor cash flow), and Austin (overbuilt multifamily, high insurance and taxes). They also cover the strategy of investing in smaller cities within 30-40 miles of hot metros to capitalize on growth while maintaining affordability. Tune in for expert insights on where to invest for cash flow in 2026!
