Blue Hat Wealth was founded when I sold a portfolio of homes and deferred all the capital gains taxes.  Everyone kept asking me “how?” I spent over 30 years in the real estate industry as a home builder, investor & property manager. While I am ready for a different season of my career, I am not ready to retire.  I didn’t want to lose my equity to taxes when I changed my career objectives.  I discovered strategies that work to delay taxes and I want other business owners to have access to these strategies too.
