IRS increases AI audits ($1.1 billion recovered so far) | 1441

A new report from the Treasury Inspector General reveals that the IRS has deployed 68 AI projects, 30 of which are already active, with a main focus on millionaire tax cases. The AI systems are now also targeting real estate investors, specifically those earning over $400,000 annually or with partnerships exceeding $10 million in assets. These systems detect discrepancies by cross-referencing tax returns with financial statements, identifying patterns, and focusing on partnership structures and rapid portfolio growth. The video highlights the importance of proper entity structuring, proactive documentation, and strategic tax planning to minimize audit risks. A guide for IRS Audit Defense is provided to help investors prepare and protect themselves from potential audits triggered by these AI systems.

Banks dumping real estate in 2025 (only 31% left) | 1440

In this episode, we reveal significant shifts in the lending market and how they impact real estate investors. Traditional banks now only handle 31% of all loans, down from 44% two years ago, and the number of U.S. commercial banks has decreased drastically since 1984. Investors face challenges as traditional lenders take 30-60 days for approvals, while life insurance companies, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and agency lending are stepping in to fill the void. We share a compelling example of how these changes affected one investor, Elena. She faced significant delays and obstacles with traditional banks but turned her fortunes around using specialized lenders. Our discussion includes how these lenders differ from traditional banks and why they are better suited for today’s market needs.
