7FF 780: 6 Tax Secrets Most Real Estate Investors Don’t Know About

April 17, 2025

About This Episode

I’ve seen too many successful real estate investors lose massive chunks of their profits.

Not because they weren’t doing deals…

But because they didn’t have a solid tax strategy dialed in.

The truth?

You can’t out-earn bad tax planning. Even if you’re flipping multiple properties a year.

This week on the podcast, I’m breaking down 6 tax secrets that most investors don’t know—but should.

If you want to keep more of what you make (without living in fear of tax season)...

Listen in now.

Oh, and before you go…

I get asked about bookkeeping and tax stuff ALL the time.

(Seriously, my DMs are flooded with "Adam, who do you use for ____?")

So let me introduce you to two companies that have been absolute game-changers for my business.

First up is Auxilee…

These folks are like your "back-office secret weapon." They handle all the messy bookkeeping that usually gives investors headaches. Plus, they've got this cool AI-driven system that makes everything run smoother.

Think: No more late-night QuickBooks sessions or wondering if you tracked that renovation expense correctly.

Check out Auxilee here. >>

And if you need more comprehensive tax strategy and planning…

Meet ATG Advisors. These are the number-crunching ninjas who help make sure you're not leaving money on the table come tax season.

They're particularly good with real estate investors (they get our unique challenges), and they've got over 100 years of combined experience.

Connect with ATG Advisors here. >>

Here's why I'm sharing both:

Smart investors know that good bookkeeping and solid tax strategy go hand in hand. It's like trying to win a race with both shoes tied together if you're only doing one or the other.

I trust both these teams. They've helped countless investors in our community keep more of what they earn.

(And isn't that the whole point?)

Catch you on the flip side!
