Selling a second home, rental, or investment property? You could defer the tax hit.
Just closed a deal involving a 1031 exchange, and it reminded me how many property owners don't realize this option exists. Quick breakdown in the video 👇 If you've got a second home or investment property on the Treasure Coast and you're thinking about selling, let's talk.
Just closed this one — Fort Pierce, Florida. 🏡
What made this deal interesting: my buyer was using 1031 exchange funds, which means the clock was running from day one. Miss a deadline or structure it wrong, and the buyer loses their tax deferral — no second chances.
I work regularly with exchange agents and qualified intermediaries on these transactions, and I know how to keep them on track. If you're an investor looking to roll gains from one property into the next without taking a tax hit, this is exactly the kind of deal I help clients through.

🏡 SOLD in 52 Days - From Vacant & Violated to Closed!
On June 2nd, an asset manager out of Atlanta called me about a REO property in my backyard with no local support on the ground. Here's what we did:
🔑 Re-keyed within 12 hours
📋 Pencil title search uncovered active code violations + 2 years of unpaid taxes
🏛️ Negotiated the fines down to minimum admin cost
🏚️ Trash-out and sales clean completed within the first week
🏊 Pool went from black and muddy to sparkling blue & maintained weekly through closing
🌿 Biweekly lawn care and repairs to bring it to financeable condition
The result? Multiple offers in the first week on market and a contract slightly above asking price.
This is what full-service REO management looks like and it's exactly what I bring to every asset manager I work with.

🚨Florida just posted the highest foreclosure rate in the country.
New ATTOM data shows Florida homeowners are facing foreclosure at a higher rate than any other state — about 1 in every 373 homes so far this year. We're seeing it here on the Treasure Coast too.
If you're behind on your mortgage, know this: foreclosure isn't your only option.
A short sale can mean far less damage to your credit — but most homeowners never learn that until it's too late.

If you're under the age of 40, there's a good chance you've never even heard the term "short sale" before.
I think that's about to change.
The truth is that a lot of people are quietly struggling right now even if it doesn’t show on the outside. Just this past week, two past clients reached out feeling overwhelmed by the current economy.
I put together a digital guide on short sales - exactly what to know, what to expect, and your realistic options if you’re facing this situation.
