Episode #131: The CARES Act with Damion Lupo

Today on the Passive Investment Through Multi-family Real Estate Podcast we are joined by Damion Lupo! Damion has a long history in entrepreneurship and he is here to talk about the new CARES Act and how it might affect the foreseeable future for real estate investors. Damion does a sterling job of explaining the particulars of the act and what it means right now, leading into the rest of the calendar year. Although the reasons for the act might be apparent in the current crisis, Damion is skeptical of its long term benefits, foreseeing a damaging effect on the dollar and the American economy in general. We discuss what the CARES Act allows individuals to do, in terms of withdrawals and repayments and what this means for taxation. The stimulus packages that have already been implemented have relieved the finances of many businesses but how far can this strategy legitimately be stretched? Damion does not believe very much further, without some very negative results. All that being said it pays to be in the know with regards to what this all means to your money and that is where Damion’s great expertise comes into play! For all of this and a whole more in a critical time for yours and everyone else's investments, be sure to listen in!
