How to Set Up a Beneficiary Deed
Tuesday Jan 11, 2022
Tuesday Jan 11, 2022
Should you use your personal name as a beneficiary of a Lady Bird Deed or should you set up a new entity to receive ownership?
In the first Tax Tuesday episode of 2022, Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors discuss how to set up a beneficiary deed and answer additional tax-related questions.
Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- Are the profits from my real estate syndication investment considered passive income? It’s highly likely that your syndication income is passive in nature for two reasons - you’re probably a limited partner and it’s real estate, which are both passive activities.
- Should I use my personal name as a beneficiary of a Lady Bird Deed or should I set up a new entity to receive ownership? Medicare can take a real estate asset to pay for care, but a Lady Bird Deed is an enhanced life estate allowed in five states for a beneficiary to protect their home as an inheritance.
- How does a C Corp pay me (the homeowner) for the use of part of my house as office space? Don’t report it on your 1040. It’s a tax-free reimbursement. However, if you rent your home to the corporation, then it is taxable income.
- Can we still rollover a regular IRA to Roth? For now, you can still do a Roth conversion.

How to Deduct Taxes When Purchasing a Home
Tuesday Dec 14, 2021
Tuesday Dec 14, 2021
Toby Mathis and Ian Hanuscin of Anderson Advisors talk about how to deduct taxes when purchasing a home and answer other tax questions. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- How can I eliminate paying capital gains? I recently sold my rental property because I needed the cash to pay off a divorce settlement. What are my options? Since you already sold the rental property, doing a 1031 exchange is no longer an option, but a qualified opportunity zone is an option to defer the tax
- Which is better? A 1031 exchange with limited time and capital availability or paying capital gains with unlimited time available and no restrictions on capital? Depends on your income bracket, so before doing a 1031, talk to your tax person
- After receiving a sizable amount of money, how soon after do taxes need to be paid? Usually, it’s 90% of the current year’s income or either 100 or 110% of last year’s income for tax liability
- If I register a vehicle under my company name, is this tax deductible? If it’s 100% business use, yes; if not, determine the percentage of use and deduct that amount

How to Use LLCs for Your Wholesale Real Estate
Tuesday Nov 30, 2021
Tuesday Nov 30, 2021
Happy Thanksgiving! What are you thankful for? Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors talk about how to use LLCs for your wholesale real estate, retirement plans, and other tax questions. They relate seasoning and cooking the turkey as well as words of wisdom from Bobby Boucher in Waterboy to tax topics. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- Roth Account: I’m not 59 ½ yet. I know I can withdraw my contribution/conversion amounts without paying taxes, but will I be penalized? If you withdraw your contributions from a Roth IRA, there’s no taxes or penalties, but if you take out earnings from a Roth IRA held for less than 5 years and you’re under 59 ½, you’re subject to taxes, penalties
- Wholesaling: Should that be an LLC by itself? One LLC per deal or just use the same one? Depends on whether your state has a series LLC because it’s easy to create a series but it’s difficult to open bank accounts for them
- I’m thinking about delivering packages for a delivery service to supplement my income. My current car is paid off. Should I buy or lease a vehicle for business use? Should my earnings fall under the protection of an LLC and Employer Identification Number (EIN)? Do not lease a vehicle for something like this because you will quickly exceed the mileage limitations, but do set up an active entity (S/C Corp, LLC) for liability protection
- If I purchased a course or educational support not in my LLC’s name, can I still deduct it for my business? Yes, if it is directly related to your business, but get reimbursed
