Challenges

  • New investors often do not realize that passive equity interests in a syndication or fund do not qualify as replacement property in a 1031 exchange
  • Direct ownership offers more control but requires more hands on management than most passive alternatives
  • Choosing a pathway without considering long term tax strategy can foreclose options an investor may want later

What we deliver

  • A plain language overview of the direct and passive real estate investment pathways available to you
  • A comparison of management burden, income profile, and 1031 exchange eligibility for each pathway
  • A referral path to property identification support if direct ownership fits your goals
