Video: Let’s Talk About Capital Gains Taxes

https://youtu.be/pq4jmq_wzW8 VIDEO DIALOGUE Hey, how’s it going? We’re gonna talk for just a minute about capital gains taxes. Seriously, just a minute. Before I start, something needs to be said.

VIDEO: Investing in Real Estate Is Smarter Than Gold and Stocks

Video: Can Millennials Buy a Home?

https://youtu.be/Lsiz7ynBjN0 VIDEO DIALOGUE I don’t know about you, but all those articles that came out a few years ago about how Millennials are ruining everything, well…that hurt a little bit. I’m a Millennial. Yep, that’s me: a Millennial Realtor. But who likes titles, anyway? So, anyway, everyone was writing articles about how Millennials are killing the diamond industry, restaurants, grocery stores, fashion…and, of course, real estate. No one was buying real estate. I mean, what’s a Millennial [...]

VIDEO: Home Equity Loan / Heloc / What is Home Equity?

https://youtu.be/MD17B5zwwBc When I work with buyers, they often don’t understand what home equity is. And sellers sometimes don’t realize there are ways their equity can help them sell. So let’s talk about what it is and what you can do with it. To put it simply, home equity is the difference between the amount you owe on your property, and its current value. Now, value can be hard to define because there are many applications for it [...]
