Mark and Mat Talk Real Estate Strategies on this weeks episode.

Real estate investment groups (REIGs) may seem like an easy way to invest in real estate without the hassle of managing the property yourself. However, there are several potential downsides to consider. First, you have no control over the properties being invested in, which can be a major disadvantage for those who prefer a hands-on approach. Second, high fees and costs associated with the investment can eat into returns and make it difficult to sell your ownership interest in the group.It's important to carefully consider the lack of control, high fees, illiquidity, and potential risks associated with an REIG before making a decision. Due diligence and research are critical to making informed choices, and investors should be aware of these potential downsides before investing in an REIG.

Folks, let me tell you - filing for an extension is not something to fear. In fact, it can be one of the smartest moves you make when it comes to your taxes. Let's dive into the benefits of filing for an extension, and why it's important to submit an estimated payment along with it.First and foremost, filing for an extension can help you avoid late filing penalties. If you miss the April deadline, the IRS will slap you with a 5% penalty for each month that your return is late. Ouch! But by filing for an extension, you can buy yourself an additional six months to complete your tax return and avoid those pesky penalties.But that's not all - an extension can also give you more time to gather information and ensure that your tax return is accurate. This is especially important if you have a complex tax situation, with lots of investments or if you're self-employed. Taking your time and getting everything in order can help you avoid mistakes that could lead to an audit or penalties down the road.Now, let's talk about why it's crucial to submit an estimated payment along with your extension. When you file for an extension, you're only extending the time to file your return, not the time to pay any taxes owed. If you don't submit an estimated payment, you could be hit with penalties and interest charges.But that's not the only reason to submit an estimated payment - it can also help you avoid a big tax bill at the end of the year. By paying some of your taxes now, you can spread out the payments over a longer period of time, which can be a huge help for your budget. And, submitting an estimated payment can also help you avoid getting flagged for an audit. The IRS looks at large unpaid tax bills as a potential red flag, so getting some money in early can help you fly under the radar.In conclusion, don't be afraid to file for an extension if you need it. It can be a great way to avoid penalties, reduce the risk of errors, and give yourself more time to get your taxes in order. Just remember to submit an estimated payment along with your extension to avoid any headaches down the road.

Mark and Mat interview special guest Chris Loeffler, CEO and Co-Founder of Caliber on how you can defer, reduce, and eliminate capital gains by making an opportunity zone investment. And special note, you can still defer 2019 and 2020 gains for investments made by December 31, 2020. Opportunity Zones were created under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and have become a popular place for investors with capital gains from any source (real estate, business, stock) to re-invest their gains (tax-deferred, with reduction benefits too) into tax favorable Opportunity Zone funds. Learn how a deal qualifies, the tax rules and perks, the extended benefits for gains in 2019 and 2020, and how to analyze an Opportunity Zone fund or deal.
