1031 exchange vs deferred Sales Trust
Benefits of a Deferred Sales Trust (DST)
and buying real estate through
the DST vs 1031 exchange
1) “Dave Ramsey” Get out Debt Plan: If you sell and move your equity into a Deferred Sales Trust you don’t have to replace the debt vs the 1031 exchange where you have to purchase a property of equal or greater value. Having no debt lowers your risk, especially in a highly appreciate market.
2) Buy at Optimal Timing. Freedom to Sell High and Buy Low: Buyback into and back out of real estate by partnering with your DST Trust. Direct the funds to a lender to loan the funds for a business purpose such as real estate loan, buy into a business or develop RE at your own timing (all capital gains tax deferred, without having to follow any timing guidelines.)
3) Net rental income: If you buy a property through the DST you don’t have to take the rental income right away. Instead, the income can be put back into the DST and invested in Stock, Bonds, Mutual Funds. This can lower your tax bracket potentially and you earn interest on the income you would have normally paid Uncle Sam.
4) Partnership Interest: When a partnership or other ownership group sells an appreciated asset, they do not need to remain together to achieve tax deferral, as is typically the case with a 1031 Exchange. Each individual owner can have their own Deferred Sales Trust:, the assets of which can be managed to each taxpayer’s own individual risk tolerance and preferences.
5) A 1031 Exchange alternative or rescue: Unlike a 1031 Exchange, the proceeds from the sale do not have to be invested in “like-kind” property in a very short timeframe to achieve tax deferral. Moreover, a DST can be used to rescue a 1031 Exchange that is in danger of failing. Once the funds are in the DST the funds can be directed to a new LLC which can own, develop and run a business all while remaining tax-deferred.
6) Liquidity and Diversification: Convert an illiquid asset, like a business or commercial real estate, into a diversified portfolio of liquid investments. This can help reduce risk and volatility by preventing overexposure to a single asset class.
7) Depreciation Schedule: resets when the property is purchased in partnership with a DST
8) Move Funds Out of Taxable Estate: At the close of escrow, move funds outside of taxable estate to avoid the 40% estate tax on amounts over $11M single or $22M married couple.

“The 1031Exchange is the best-known way to defer capital gains on the sale of a property. But what if a few of the Limited Partners (LPs) in a syndication want to cash out—while the rest are looking for an option to defer? The DeferredSalesTrust, or DST, may just be the perfect solution!”
