Hi,
Recently my husband and I sold a couple of investment properties and we now have a capital gain of about $160,000. Our accountant has advised us to put a big chunk (like $70,000) into RRSP`s as a tax shelter for the capital gain, but my question is as a real estate investor is this our best option?
What I`d like to know is what other REIN members do to protect their capital gains or do you just roll with the flow and pay your taxes comes the end of the year?
