Hey everyone, welcome back to the Jack Chapel show! Today, I'm going to be talking about how you can pay zero taxes through real estate. Yes, you heard that right - zero taxes! If you build up a substantial real estate portfolio, you can make hundreds of thousands of dollars and not have to pay a dime in taxes. This may seem too good to be true, but it's actually a legitimate strategy. I first learned about this from Robert Kiyosaki, who is a renowned real estate investor with billions of dollars in assets. He claimed that despite making millions of dollars every year, he never has to pay taxes, even when he sells a property. This piqued my interest, so I started digging deeper to understand how it works.

If you have an annual income of $50,000, your taxable income after deducting the interest expense would be around $41,500. Now, let's move on to the most crucial aspect of building a real estate portfolio - the capital cost allowance (CCA) in Canada or depreciation in the United...
