Real estate isn't just about buying and selling properties.

It's about making smart decisions that help you build wealth over time.

A 1031 Exchange is one of the most powerful tools available to real estate investors, allowing you to defer capital gains taxes while reinvesting into new investment properties. When used strategically, it can help you preserve equity, grow your portfolio, and create a stronger long-term financial plan.

In this episode of The Mortgage Lounge, Mike Grambow is joined by Monique Wilson and Michael Spring of Exchange Resources to explain how 1031 Exchanges work, who qualifies, the critical deadlines every investor should know, and the common mistakes that can put an exchange at risk. They also discuss reverse exchanges, Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs), estate planning strategies, and why having the right team of professionals can make all the difference.

Whether you're preparing to sell your first investment property or looking to expand your real estate portfolio, this conversation will give you a better understanding of how a 1031 Exchange can become part of your long-term wealth-building strategy.
