In this episode of "Investment Insights," we explore the possibility of using a 1031 exchange to invest in a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT). Despite the differences between real property and securities, it can be done with careful planning and adherence to rules.
We break down the process, which involves exchanging real property for shares of a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) and then converting them into Operating Partnership (OP) units through an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (UPREIT). This transition offers benefits like liquidity and diversification but also has complexities and potential tax consequences.

Our expert host explains the UPREIT process, covering the syndication period and the opportunity for investors to exchange DST interests for OP units in an entity owned by the REIT.
While 1031 exchanges into REITs have advantages, it's important to consider the inability to defer capital gains tax liabilities. Seek guidance from professionals experienced in DSTs, UPREITs, and REITs before considering this exchange.
