His company offers a holistic approach to acquiring, managing, and growing real estate assets utilizing a comprehensive array of services. They will tailor an investment strategy to match your individual goals and execute it at every step with deep expertise.Charles provided his analysis of economic cycles and how they impact investment decisions. He used historical comparisons from the 1970s and 1980s where conditions were similar including:Rising inflation that cause demand-destructionRising interest ratesReduction in transactional volumePolitical unrestEnergy crisisSupply chain issuesCurrently, we are trending towards stagflation which is defined by rising inflation, slow economic growth, and increased unemployment. Key economic indicators such as these, inform strategic decision-making. In the past, tools used to combat recession included:Reduce government spendingLower interest ratesIncrease energy productionHowever, until we see government policy supporting these types of actions, we can expect current trends to continue. What does this mean for real estate investors? Good news, real estate remains a strong asset class even during these uncertain times. Charles anticipates rents to increase. This will be driven by population growth combined with an existing housing shortage and the cost to build new homes being high. He then provided an argument for why multi-unit properties can provide more security than single-family home rentals. For those looking to diversify, Charles shared a few of his preferred alternatives along with his rationale for choosing them.Want a refresher or to see what you missed? Watch the replay.

Sometimes the small personal effects can have a big impact. It may be the irreplaceable keys to the loft, the invaluable smartphone, or treasured photos in the wallet. What are personal effects? They are usually personal property; items of particular significance that are carried or worn. These can be wallets, jewelry, phone, keys, etc. Items above a certain value, like a diamond engagement ring, fall into a different category. If she died in a care facility? Sadly, more often than not, some personal property will go missing at a care facility. It's a sad indictment of humans everywhere. When a lot of people pass through a patient's hospital room (EMTs, nurses, doctors, visitors, janitors, etc.), there is bound to be a set of sticky fingers with no way to figure out who did it. Personal property sitting on a patient's nightstand is an easy grab. The thief may not be a habitual thief but could simply be a person who sees a crime of opportunity. We've had this happen in many of our estates, sadly. The family knows that their loved one had a piece of jewelry at the care facility, and now it's gone. Heirs understandably get mad, and there is not much anyone can do. Unfortunately, this is something below the district attorney's radar and is typically hard to prove. If she died at home? In New York, when someone dies in their home, the police come and put up yellow police tape. You then need Letters Testamentary to enter. The police search the home for personal effects and put them into the evidence room at the police precinct. So, if you do get into the home and can't find something, check the police precinct. Also, the police purge non-cash valuables within 1 year. They can't hold things forever, or they will run out of room. If you are looking for the decedent's keys or special photos, etc., you need to get to the precinct as soon as you can. A year may sound long, but time seems to go fast when you're probating an estate. Sometimes it can take a year to get Letters Testamentary, so you need to move fast! Be aware that you will need to find the correct police precinct. We had an estate where we thought the personal effects were at the local precinct, but they were stored at the main one. This sounds like a pain, but at least the police secure the property and there is a paper trail of what they found.

What would happen to your family if you or another primary income earner suddenly became disabled and couldn't work for an extended period of time? What if they died and their income disappeared forever? Many families would have a hard time paying the mortgage, the property taxes, tuition, and many other expenses involved in a family's daily life. And believe it or not, the majority of families don't have an adequate plan to cover all those expenses. In this episode, Kirsten Howe speaks with independent insurance specialist Todd Wellnitz about different types of insurance that he refers to as “lifestyle insurance.” He'll share some general rules and stories to educate us about this critical aspect of financial and estate planning. Don't be caught off guard in the case of disability. This podcast will ensure you're prepared for a loss of income in an unexpected situation. Todd believes people's lifestyles are very personal to them and he wants to make sure that his clients keep that lifestyle protected, in case life shows up in those not so happy and unexpected ways. Todd recommends using insurance tools such as disability insurance, life insurance, long-term care insurance, and some income annuities as stabilization strategies for his clients' financial future, so they can sleep better at night. As a fully independent broker, Todd's company Wellguard Insurance & Financial, has no obligation to sell any insurance company's product. This means he doesn't have a quota to provide a certain number of policies to his clients. For consumers, Todd's job is to make his clients look as attractive to the right insurance company as possible so he can get more money for their family from the big insurance companies. Another advantage to Todd's business is that he can pick and choose from a variety of insurance companies to source the best protection for a particular situation. Some of the topics covered in this podcast include: The types of insurance that can be used to help generate income if a person becomes disabled The amount of lifestyle insurance you'll need to secure based on your income in order to protect your lifestyle Believe it or not. You could be the beneficiary of your own life insurance policy How to convert a term life insurance into a permanent policy without reapplying based on health Using income annuities to help pay for long-term care Why it's beneficial to work with an independent insurance agent What you can do if you can't secure insurance coverage based on your health And more. If you haven't thought much about how you'd protect your family's lifestyle if the primary earner was to become disabled and you want to learn how to do it, this is the episode for you.

This area of your finances has a significant impact on reaching your financial freedom goals and is something that you can largely control. First, you'll need the awareness of where your money is going. Then you can take action to lower that number by reducing expenses.Insurance is your first line of defense when it comes to asset protection and is an operational expense that can't be avoided. But it likely can be reduced.Getting appropriate insurance coverage for real estate investors is a hassle. Most investors struggle to manage multiple carriers and policies. In this session, Scott shows how to streamline the insurance process, how insurance works within your asset protection plan, common issues you probably experience with your insurance, and how Royal Legal Solutions can help.Today Scott discussed his thought process regarding insurance and used a diagram to demonstrate the “belt and suspenders” approach.

One example is that you could see better returns in a different neighborhood, county, state, or region.Expanding the scope of where to look for deals reduces the impact socio-economics, demographics, and local legislation has on you.Some considerations for investing in real estate at a distance that we discussed included: A solid network of trusted professionals is essentialSeek out potential partners who have skills you can leverageOffer partners incentives to work with youStructure partnerships based on the value each party brings to the dealDelegate responsibility appropriatelyFix-and-flip vs. buy and hold scenariosWant a refresher or to see what you missed?

The recent 2021 Social Security Trustees report finds that in 2034, retirees will start receiving a reduced benefit (78%) if Congress doesn't fix funding issues for the social program.  That sound scary and urgent.  What then?  In this episode, Caroline and Tim discussed the following questions: What do we think Social Security will look like in the future?  At what age or milestone in life should one take Social Security?  What does that conversation look like?  What are some reasons to take it earlier vs. later?  How does that impact your investment?  Can one take it while still working?  How is the benefit calculated?  Taking Social Security is not just what makes sense mathematically, but also in terms of lifestyle.  Like Tim said, the value of happiness matters just as much as the value of dollars!

When is the last time you and your significant other took a romantic weekend to rekindle the fire? And spent most of the time, at the beach or in the mountains, talking about the pros and cons of an irrevocable trust? Wild guess: How about … never? Although vitally important in some cases, irrevocable trusts are sort of like heel spurs or picking kitchen paint colors as a topic of extended conversation. And yet … There may come a time in your family's life when having the should-I-have-a-trust conversation is critical. Whether you did it, or especially if you didn't do it but should have! All this is a sneaky way to lead into today's Your Turn radio show. And while the subject doesn't automatically draw your attention, in many cases it should. What such a trust is, and whether it is vital or useless for you and yours is something you have to deal with while you are still around. It won't wait until after you've gone and mourning — maybe fighting — loved ones are dealing with your estate which, by the way, even the most modest feds have. Today we'll be talking with Tom O'Rourke, a Washington area tax and estate attorney.

What happens when a business owner wants to retire, step back, or step away completely? Like death and taxes, transition is a certainty. 100% of businesses will transition — the question is who will control it, you or circumstances? In this episode, Senior Wealth Strategist Cindy Campbell joins us to discuss business succession planning, retirement and estate planning considerations for business owners, and how to prepare for the sale of your business.

Today we describe some real-world examples of mistakes made by non-professional executors dealing with probate real estate. Making it personal with tenants Often times, a non-professional executor is a family member or friend who has too much history with the tenants. For example, one of our executors helped the decedent in her final years and felt that the tenants were taking advantage of the decedent (late paying rent, not cleaning up after themselves, poor property upkeep, etc.). So, when the decedent passed, the executor has lots of bones to pick with the tenants: where the tenants parked, the condition of property, etc. If tenants want to be difficult, they can make probate very difficult. As we've talked about before, it can be very hard to get rid of bad tenants in probate, so picking a fight isn't helpful. For the sake of probate, it's often best to let it go and move on. In our example, the executor got into huge fight with tenants and the tenants called the police. A huge production was made, and we had to spend months in litigation to get them to vacate. When a professional executor is involved, he or she doesn't have that blood-boiling history with tenants. A benefit of hiring a professional executor is that we don't get emotionally invested. Knowing what renovations are worth doing In the past, we've discussed certain renovations that almost always make sense (Episode 254: Best Renovations to do Before Selling Probate Real Estate) These include a fresh coat of paint, cleaning out the home, etc. We recently had an executor who believed the decedent's home was fine to sell as-is. Let me tell you that the place was not fine. But the executor had the position that if “it was good enough for my aunt to live there, it's good enough for buyers.” Perhaps it was something sentimental to her that the house looked a certain way, but that's not what buyers are looking for. Because of this, the executor declined even a basic paint job. It is almost certainly going to be a struggle to sell. Choosing the right broker Choosing the right broker is tricky, even with a normal sale. You need to pick the right fit for the property and the right demeanor as a seller. Of course, it's even harder in probate. Even if you find an excellent broker for the neighborhood, you also need someone who understands probate issues. For example, I am dealing with a situation where neither the buyer's broker nor the seller's broker understood that the seller was in probate. So, the day before closing, they said they “need something called Letters Testamentary before we can proceed.” Only then did they learn that the heirs were not in agreement, so there was no property to be sold! It was a huge waste of everyone's time. That was an extreme situation, but there are many other nuance situations where if you don't have a broker experienced with probate, time and money are wasted. For example, we have an executor who hired the dreaded “friend” broker. Friend brokers can be great, but this is not the time to repay favors to a friend via estate work. Estates are complicated already. The second problem was that the broker was from out of state and didn't understand local customs. Third, the broker listed the home at a high price. In probate, you want to sell fast, but listing at a high price psychologically pegged the executor's mind to that unrealistic number. A probate-experienced broker would avoid that situation. High prices turn away buyers who know the area and know that the seller has unrealistic expectations. When an offer finally came in, the out-of-state broker prepared a binding contract and had the executor sign it. (In New York, a lawyer usually prepares or reviews the contract, because there are a lot of nuances that can cause disadvantages and risk). As a result, this executor unknowingly made some big concessions and promises she didn't need to make. These are things we've seen a lot lately. We share these scenarios to help you avoid future problems and consider the importance of hiring a professional executor.

This week we speak to some of the issues business owners face as they develop the type of succession plan that secures the future for their families, long after they are gone. We sat down with George Gore, CFP, President of Capitas Financial Midwest, who specializes in Estate Planning and Business Succession, along with Life Insurance Planning. We covered an awful lot of ground on this episode. The basic thrust of the episode is the concept that death, disability, and severe market conditions are all potential events that could cause a forced sale of a family business, absent a proper contingency plan. George shares his experiences seeing many families forced to sell a business when the key principal passes and his views on the best ways to avoid an unwanted outcome, all of which business owners should do proactively before it is too late:  (1) Determining whether the business is sustainable without the key principal. (2) Having funding mechanisms in place to transfer the business to the next owner. (3) Retaining expert advice from financial advisors, legal, accounting, and insurance planning specialists. (4) Utilizing life insurance and gifting exemptions to create a tax-efficient transfer when the time comes. George also explains how changes to the tax laws coming in 2025 make proper succession and legacy planning all the more critical in the coming years. To contact George, you can find him at https://www.capitasfinancial.com/location/05-capitas-financial-midwest-llc-illinois
