Most commercial real estate owners plan to “just leave it to the kids”… but for many families, that decision turns into a massive burden instead of a blessing.
In this episode, Aviva sits down with Rich Vaaler, author of Don’t Leave It to the Kids, to unpack why complicated commercial real estate assets can become a curse for the next generation and what smart owners should do before it’s too late.
You’ll learn:
👉 Why multifamily, office, and older industrial assets can overwhelm heirs
👉How to convert complex properties into simple, passive, mailbox-money CRE
👉When 1031 exchanges make sense — and what backup plans exist
👉Why single-tenant NNN (Dollar General, Dutch Bros, QSR, automotive tenants) are often the best “legacy asset” to pass down
👉The psychology of family wealth, generational planning & stepping into retirement with intention
If you want your kids to inherit a gift and not a headache, this conversation is essential.

✅ About Aviva Real Estate.
Aviva joined the family business at 22, hell-bent on proving her way.
Aviva noticed a significant gap in how Commercial Real Estate utilized the internet. She quickly integrated modern marketing practices through automation, data analytics, and social media strategy to expand the company rapidly. Meanwhile, the internet was not only changing the overall practices of commercial real estate, but it was also controlling how the general public needed commercial real estate as a whole.
With a strong passion for helping people create their destinies, Aviva and the Warehouse Hotline use social media to speak to +1.2 million followers on TikTok and Instagram under the alias, @AvivaRealEstate, to share a wealth of knowledge on one of the industry’s most rapidly growing markets. Aviva’s expertise has earned her a spot on the Forbes Real Estate Council, and she was named CREI’s #1 Instagram Influencer in Commercial Real Estate.
