Real Estate and 1031 Exchanges: Protecting Investments in Uncertain Times
Real estate has also seen significant shifts post-pandemic, with property markets fluctuating and new opportunities arising for savvy investors. Michael V. Favia’s real estate law practice, particularly in 1031 exchanges, is crucial for those looking to grow and protect their wealth in these uncertain times.
