In this episode of What Keeps You Awake.TV, host David Hooser welcomes back Zach Haptonstall, CEO & co-founder of Rise48 Equity, to break down the newly passed “Big Beautiful Bill” and its sweeping tax implications for real estate investors. From bonus depreciation to 1031 exchanges, Zach explains what the legislation means for owners, operators, and everyday investors.
