Part I
When it's time to raise the rent, can you just declare the new rent level? Or what paperwork is required? Do we need to terminate the tenancy?
Can they sign an addendum? How do we avoid discrimination, concessions, or other legal gotchas?
We'll be walking through the various ways landlords attempt to raise the rent and discussing the pitfalls with each approach. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of
the way judges want to see rent raises carried out.
This part of the presentation will be presented by Attorney Kate Higgins-Shea.
Part II
What's the biggest tax savings ever? How about if you saved over $100,000?
Come learn about IRS Section 1031, which allows owners to avoid recapture tax.
In a nutshell, owners can depreciate their property, saving tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes
over the life of the building, and then they can sell out and transfer that money into new property of like kind without paying recapture tax.
Everyone serious about rental property as an investment vehicle should understand Section 1031. But it's not for the faint of heart! Tight timelines are involved.
If you do it only once if your life, it will still save you $100,000 or more, depending on the value of your property.
This part will be presented by Chris Brown of Edmund & Wheeler.
