There’s nothing quite like bringing the entire LSL team together.

Our annual Firm Retreat kicked off in beautiful, sunny San Diego with a welcome reception overlooking the San Diego Bay. Team members traveled from across the country—including California, Utah, Arizona, Texas, Alabama, New York, New Jersey, Florida, and Georgia (and more!)—to reconnect, meet new colleagues, and celebrate another year of growth.

From great conversations and stunning views to a fun-filled casino night, it was the perfect way to begin a retreat centered around one of our core values: Accomplish More Together!

A 1031 exchange can be a powerful strategy for real estate investors — but it’s not always the only path forward. In this new blog, LSL Partner Justin Jensen, MBA, CPA, breaks down several alternatives investors may want to consider depending on their timing, liquidity needs, and long-term goals, including cost segregation, installment sales, Opportunity Zones, and partial exchange strategies. The key? Starting the conversation before the sale closes so there’s time to evaluate the right fit for your overall financial picture.
