DST

While many people I work with are familiar with a 1031 exchange, I find that many professionals including real estate investors, CPAs, real estate brokers and even real estate attorneys do not know about the possible use of a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) which may be used to complete a 1031 exchange. My role as a financial advisor is providing access to institutional quality real estate structured as a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST).

 A DST may offer potential benefits that might be attractive to someone selling appreciated real estate. In addition to allowing the individual to defer taxes, a DST might offer the following:

  • Access to institutional quality real estate

  • No management responsibilities, professionally managed

  • Diversification into more than one property and in more than one market

  • Predictability and flexibility when closing

  • Non-recourse, institutional financing

  • Flexible investment amounts
