John interviews Dave Foster, breaking down how investors can legally defer capital gains using 1031 exchanges and why timing, preparation, and the right intermediary matter more than most people realize. Dave explains common misconceptions around the 45-day identification window, how overlapping closings and contingencies can dramatically extend real decision time, and why many investors fail simply by waiting too long to plan. He also covers red flags when choosing a qualified intermediary, limitations of using 1031s in syndications, and practical workarounds for investors transitioning from active ownership into more passive strategies.
