        New eBook Release: Real Estate Investing in the New Era — Smart Strategies to Build Wealth

        By Paul Getty15, Jan 2026

        We are excited to announce the release of a brand-new educational resource from Paul M. Getty, President & CEO of FGG1031. The new book, Real Estate Investing in the New Era: Smart Strategies to Build Wealth, is now available as a complimentary download. This guide was created to help both new and experienced investors navigate today’s rapidly evolving real estate landscape with greater clarity and confidence.

        The real estate market is undergoing significant transformation, influenced by changing interest rates, shifting demographics, regulatory changes, and the growing role of artificial intelligence. These factors have created a new environment—one that presents both challenges and compelling opportunities. Paul wrote this book to provide readers with a clear understanding of these forces and to outline practical strategies that can help investors make informed decisions in this new era.

        Inside the book, readers will find a detailed explanation of the major factors currently reshaping the real estate market. Paul discusses how inflation, interest rate movements, and affordability trends are impacting investment decisions across various asset classes. He also examines which market sectors have historically been best positioned for long-term performance and explains why passive investment structures, including Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) and 1031 Exchanges, continue to offer meaningful tax advantages and portfolio diversification benefits for qualified investors. Additionally, the book explores the expanding role of artificial intelligence and emerging technologies, and how these tools are changing the way properties are analyzed, managed, and valued. Throughout the guide, Paul provides practical steps and strategic insights designed to help investors seek a resilient, future-focused real estate portfolio.

        Paul has dedicated his career to helping thousands of investors build sustainable wealth through real estate. With decades of experience in structured investments, DSTs, 1031 Exchanges, and private real estate offerings, he brings a grounded and highly informed perspective to the challenges and opportunities facing investors today. His goal in writing this book is to empower readers with knowledge that supports smarter, more strategic decision-making in an environment that is more dynamic than ever.

        We invite you to download your free copy of Real Estate Investing in the New Era. The book download is available immediately, and a copy will also be emailed to you for easy access. You can get your copy here: Download the eBook.

        If you have questions about your current investment strategy or would like expert guidance on opportunities such as DSTs, 1031 Exchanges, or other passive real estate investments, please fee free to schedule a no-obligation consultation today!

        1031 Risk Disclosure:

        • There is no guarantee that any strategy will be successful or achieve investment objectives;
        • Potential for property value loss – All real estate investments have the potential to lose value during the life of the investments;
        • Change of tax status – The income stream and depreciation schedule for any investment property may affect the property owner’s income bracket and/or tax status. An unfavorable tax ruling may cancel deferral of capital gains and result in immediate tax liabilities;
        • Potential for foreclosure – All financed real estate investments have potential for foreclosure; ·Illiquidity – Because 1031 exchanges are commonly offered through private placement offerings and are illiquid securities. There is no secondary market for these investments;
        • Reduction or Elimination of Monthly Cash Flow Distributions – Like any investment in real estate, if a property unexpectedly loses tenants or sustains substantial damage, there is potential for suspension of cash flow distributions;
        • Impact of fees/expenses – Costs associated with the transaction may impact investors’ returns and may outweigh the tax benefits

        No offer to buy or sell securities is being made. Such offers may only be made to qualified accredited investors via private placement memorandum. Risks detailed in a private placement memorandum should be carefully reviewed, understood and considered before making such an investment. Prospective strategies and products used in any tax advantaged investment planning should be reviewed independently with your tax and legal advisors. Changes to the tax code and other regulatory revisions could have a negative impact upon strategies developed and recommendations made. Past performance and/or forward looking statements are never an assurance of future results.

        Many of the investments offered will be only available to those investors meeting the definition of an Accredited Investor under SEC Rule 501(A) and offered as Regulation D private placement securities via a Private Placement Memorandum (“PPM”). Prospective investors must receive, read and understand all of the risks associated with buying private placement securities. Investments are not guaranteed or FDIC insured and risks may include but are not limited to illiquidity, no guarantee of income or guarantee that all tax advantages or objectives will be met and complete loss of principal investment could occur.

        Risk Disclosure: Alternative investment products, including real estate investments, notes & debentures, hedge funds and private equity, involve a high degree of risk, often engage in leveraging and other speculative investment practices that may increase the risk of investment loss, can be highly illiquid, are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information to investors, may involve complex tax structures and delays in distributing important tax information, are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as mutual funds, often charge high fees which may offset any trading profits, and in many cases the underlying investments are not transparent and are known only to the investment manager. Alternative investment performance can be volatile. An investor could lose all or a substantial amount of his or her investment. Often, alternative investment fund and account managers have total trading authority over their funds or accounts; the use of a single advisor applying generally similar trading programs could mean lack of diversification and, consequently, higher risk. There is often no secondary market for an investor's interest in alternative investments, and none is expected to develop. There may be restrictions on transferring interests in any alternative investment. Alternative investment products often execute a substantial portion of their trades on non-U.S. exchanges. Investing in foreign markets may entail risks that differ from those associated with investments in U.S. markets. Additionally, alternative investments often entail commodity trading, which involves substantial risk of loss.

        NO OFFER OR SOLICITATION: The contents of this website: (i) do not constitute an offer of securities or a solicitation of an offer to buy of securities, and (ii) may not be relied upon in making an investment decision related to any investment offering by FGG1031 | First Guardian Group, Emerson Equity LLC, or any affiliate, or partner thereof.
