Courtney suggests focusing on projects with low break-even prices and working with experienced operators who can optimize production based on market conditions.The Role of Due Diligence: Just as in real estate, thorough due diligence is critical in oil and gas. Whether partnering with major companies like Exxon or smaller operators, vetting the track record and history of operators is essential to a successful investment.Mitigating Risks: While dry holes and market fluctuations pose risks, investing in mineral rights or partnering with experienced operators can reduce the likelihood of total loss and ensure long-term returns.

This unique approach allows investors to generate passive income by lending to expert note investors who handle the management and operations.

Join host Vinki Loomba and guest expert Paul Herbes, Senior Business Development Associate at Equity Institutional Services, as they dive into wealth-building with self-directed IRAs and 1031 exchanges. Paul brings a wealth of knowledge on these often underutilized strategies, sharing how they empower investors to make tax-deferred investments, diversify portfolios, and exercise more control over their retirement funds. The conversation covers the advantages, risks, and specific investment types ideal for self-directed IRAs, plus actionable insights on leveraging 1031 exchanges to defer taxes and optimize real estate gains.Key Takeaways:Understanding Self-Directed IRAs: Unlike traditional IRAs, self-directed IRAs provide the flexibility to invest in real estate, private equity, and other alternatives outside the stock market. Custodians like Equity Institutional focus on administrative support rather than asset management, enabling a broader range of investment options.Why Big Custodians Don't Offer These Accounts: Institutions like Fidelity or Schwab generally stick to traditional investment menus because of business model differences and fiduciary requirements. A self-directed IRA allows investors the freedom to explore more diverse, high-growth investments.1031 Exchange Essentials: For real estate investors, a 1031 exchange offers a way to defer capital gains taxes by reinvesting proceeds into similar properties, provided you meet specific IRS requirements. Paul breaks down the “45-day rule” for property identification and the “180-day rule” for closing, both crucial timelines for a successful exchange.Investment Pitfalls and Compliance: Both self-directed IRAs and 1031 exchanges require compliance with strict rules to avoid taxes and penalties. With IRAs, avoid transactions with “disqualified parties,” and with 1031s, ensure properties are truly held as investments rather than for personal use.The Golden Nugget - Estate Planning: Paul emphasizes the tax-saving benefits of 1031 exchanges in estate planning, particularly the stepped-up basis, which can significantly reduce the tax burden for heirs.

In this exciting episode of The Real Estate Vibe Show, host Vinki Loomba sits down with seasoned fund manager Andy McMullen, a leader in the real estate investment field with over $750 million in transactions under his belt. Together, they dive deep into the emerging trend of "horizontal multifamily" or "built-to-rent" (BTR) communities, a unique investment strategy that blends single-family rental benefits with the community aspects of multifamily complexes.Episode Highlights:Introduction to Built-to-Rent (BTR): Andy explains BTR communities—single-family homes or townhomes built specifically for rent rather than sale. BTR offers the feel of a suburban home combined with multifamily convenience, making it a growing trend as high mortgage rates push buyers toward renting.Market Shifts & BTR's Popularity: From affordability and high mortgage rates to evolving lifestyle choices, Andy highlights how shifting market trends and the post-COVID appeal of more spacious, suburban-style rentals have driven the growth of BTR communities.Strategic Location Selection: Andy discusses why Legacy Acquisitions focuses on high-growth markets in the Southeast, where lower land costs, supportive municipalities, and faster build timelines make BTR an attractive option for investors.Development Process & Investor Phases: Andy breaks down the BTR development journey—from acquiring land and securing entitlements to horizontal and vertical construction phases. Each phase offers unique risk and return profiles for investors, giving them flexibility based on their investment goals.Future of Built-to-Rent & Real Estate Investment: With a shift toward sustainability, modular construction, and smart home technology, Andy predicts continued growth and innovation in the BTR space, with institutional capital increasingly attracted to its scalable potential and long-term viability.
