Quit Being a Landlord & Retire: How DSTs Help Retirees

Written by Ana Reano | Jul 28, 2021 3:56:00 PM

Great news! Your CPA has informed you that you will make a lot of money through your real estate portfolio...the bad news is you will have to cut a fat check to the IRS; you’re getting killed on capital gains taxes and depreciation recapture.

Sure, you’re familiar with the 1031 Exchange Tax Code. You are at the point in your life where you just want to unload your real estate and get out of the business of “toilets, tenants, and trash.” You may not want to buy other real estate that will have to be managed in order to satisfy 1031 Exchange Requirements, and repeat the cycle for the sake of avoiding the tax bill.

So, what are you to do?

The Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) may be the golden ticket that you are looking for.

It permits fractional ownership where multiple investors can share ownership in a single property or a portfolio of properties, which qualifies as replacement property as part of an investor’s 1031 Exchange transaction.

Key Benefits:

  • No management responsibilities
  • Access to quality institutional property
  • Limited personal liability
  • Lower minimum investments
  • Diversification
  • Estate Planning
  • Insurance policy
  • Eliminate Boot
  • Swap until you drop

You can have access to a fully vetted, investment-grade real estate alternative. As a Registered Investment Advisor, not a Broker-Dealer, our process makes for a simple and straightforward 1031 Exchange as well as a less costly one.

Now take the trip, make those plans, and do the things you’ve wanted to do.
