Mortgage rates have dropped.
That doesn’t mean it’s suddenly a frenzy. It does mean buyers just regained some breathing room.

1031 exchanges come up constantly with my clients, so I wrote a clear, no-jargon guide that explains the rules in plain English.
If you want help evaluating properties or understanding the process from a real estate standpoint, I’m always happy to help.

I ran the math on 30-year vs 50-year mortgages for a $3M home… and honestly, the results surprised even me.

Read the article and give me your honest take. Good idea? Terrible idea? Something in between?
Curious where people land on this.
