HOW A 1031 EXCHANGE WORKS

Section 1031 became part of the IRS tax code in 1921 and allows a taxpayer to sell an appreciated property and purchase another of equal or greater value without incurring an immediate tax consequence on capital gains. The replacement property must also have equal or greater debt and all proceeds from the sale must be invested in the replacement property to make the transaction completely tax deferred. In 1995, the IRS rules included a provision that allows for the purchase/exchange into a partial interest
of professionally managed real estate which today is usually accomplished through a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST).

WHAT IS A DELAWARE STATUTORY TRUST (DST) EXCHANGE?

The main difference between a 1031 Exchange and a DST Exchange is that in a 1031 Exchange, the investor actively manages the property. In a DST Exchange, the investor is passive – investing the proceeds from the sale of their appreciated asset into a fund where properties are professionally managed by the fund.
