Multifamily & Residential
Multifamily and other residential investment properties are a tried and true asset class known to be resilient in the face of economic downturn and volatility. Many of our multifamily-focused clientele prefer to keep their holdings within multifamily real estate by rolling their capital into new apartment deals via a 1031 exchange. Our team has a long track record of successfully exchanging from Multifamily to Multifamily.
Triple-Net Properties
Triple net lease, triple-net, or NNN, refers to a type of commercial real estate lease where the tenant or lessee pays the full expenses of the property. This includes real estate taxes, building insurance, and maintenance, in addition to the cost of rent and utilities. Many of our clients exchange into safe, long-term triple-net properties to relieve themselves of the day-to-day management of owning and operating investment real estate.
Delaware Statutory Trusts
A Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) is a real estate ownership structure where multiple investors can purchase an undivided fractional interest in the holdings of the trust. This allows professional real estate operators, or “DST sponsors”, to identify and acquire institutional quality real estate, and then sell off partial interest in the trust to 1031 exchange buyers.
Align Timelines to maintain cash-flow
We execute several strategies to make your exchange a stress-free process, while also reducing downtime in cash-flow. Firstly, we work to build in Seller extension clauses into your downleg escrow, allowing for more time. Additionally, we often submit offers on your upleg property, or even remove contingencies, prior to the sale of your downleg property has closed.

How long do I have for a 1031 Exchange?
You have 45 days to identify up to three replacement Properties. You must close on at least one of the new properties within 180 days from the sale of the downleg property. The new property must be of “like-kind” (investment to investment).
How can I sell my property if my rents are below market?
Even if your property has below-market rents, it can still attract buyers looking for value-add opportunities and long-term upside. Investors are often drawn to properties with rent growth potential, especially in strong rental markets. By leveraging a 1031 exchange, you can sell your current asset and reinvest into a higher-performing property with stronger cash flow or appreciation prospects.
