You've probably heard "what are the three rules to buying real estate?" Location, location, location. What is better than buying rental properties in an overlooked urban downtown RIGHT before their big glow-up? Gregg Cohen has actually studied the Great American City expansion over the last 20 years and has pinpointed the number to watch where a downtown goes from "meh" to printing money. Gregg is the Co‑Founder of JWB Real Estate Companies, which manages over $1.3 billion in assets and 5,600 single‑family rental properties, making passive real estate investing accessible to everyday investors. In this talk he breaks down the five profit centers of rental property investing—net rental income, tax savings, principal paydown, home price appreciation, and inflation hedging—and shows how a single property can build long‑term wealth. Using a Jacksonville case study and a 10‑year buy‑hold cash‑out refinance example, he demonstrates how cash‑flowing rentals near an emerging downtown can produce tax‑free cash and substantial equity. He argues Jacksonville’s downtown revitalization mirrors early growth in cities like Austin and Nashville and explains why now is a timely window to position for appreciation and generational wealth.📲🚀 Schedule a free consultation with our team today!https://sholink.to/consult📈💰 Begin your Self Directed Retirement Journey today at AmericanIRA!https://americanira.ac-page.com/yt-land-lowest-fees🎧💬🚀 Subscribe to our IRA Cafe Podcast:https://bit.ly/4mvb5Y3

This is the true 101 course on how Bitcoin is sourced and protected across millions of computers and billions of lines of code. Beau Turner is the founder and CEO of Abundant Mines, a former real estate investor turned tech entrepreneur who builds renewable-energy bitcoin mining data centers and provides white-glove, hands-off infrastructure for investors. In his presentation he outlines a turnkey strategy for high-net-worth individuals and family offices to convert tax liabilities into an owned Bitcoin position by investing in productive mining infrastructure rather than buying BTC outright. He explains how tax tools like 100% first-year bonus depreciation, possible Section 179 expensing, and operating expense write-offs, combined with renewable energy hosting and operator-managed facilities, create immediate tax savings and lower the effective cost to acquire bitcoin. Beau presents modeled outcomes — a typical 30–50% effective BTC acquisition discount and potential 5–10x multi-year returns shown in the deck — and stresses urgency to act before bonus depreciation phases down after 2025 for investors with roughly $100K+ deployable capital.📲🚀 Schedule a free consultation with our team today!https://sholink.to/consult📈💰 Begin your Self Directed Retirement Journey today at AmericanIRA!https://americanira.ac-page.com/yt-land-lowest-fees🎧💬🚀 Subscribe to our IRA Cafe Podcast:https://bit.ly/4mvb5Y3
